Assistant Provost and Professor Shruti Rana recently had new article, “Reconceiving Engagement with International Law and Institutions in a Populist Era,”accepted for publication in the Melbourne Journal of International Law, Australia’s premier generalist international law journal, forthcoming 2025.
Professor Rana co-authored this piece with co-investigators on an Australian Research Council-funded grant project, entitled “Reconceiving Engagement with International Law in a Populist Era,” (https://law.anu.edu.au/reconceiving-engagement-international-law-populist-era; www.reilpop.net).
The project seeks to address the fundamental problem of how to re-conceive engagement by states with the international legal order, in the face of sustained populist movements. The article proposes to develop a new analytical framework to evaluate the origins, impact and evolution of populist concerns about international law.
