International Law, Necropolitics, and Arab Lives
International Relations and International Law continue to be accented by epistemic violence by naturalizing a separation between law and morality. What does such positivist juridical ethos make possible when considering that both disciplines reify a secular (immanent) ontology?

Thus, the only “news” ever reported by various channels of U.S. empire is the news of American exceptionalism and American innocence. ...
