Event description
This seminar will critically examine prevailing notions of justice as ‘authored’ by the ICC and the UN Security Council. By mapping out this terrain, it will explore how these discourses have reinforced hierarchies that subjugate alternative imaginaries of justice. The seminar offers an alternative imaginary rooted in Pan-Africanist epistemology, lexicon, and radical praxis to re-configure and re-compose efforts at world-making in international law.
