@UNBLaw we've been working to teach and research international law in a manner that resonates with the issues, concerns, and contexts of Atlantic Canada.

I'm delighted to share a post, out today in @opiniojuris, discussing some of this work and the thinking behind it.

A fantastic piece by the incomparable @fseichberger.

I had the great pleasure of sharing a study room with Fabian at @Lauterpacht_Ctr these past years and his thinking on this topic is not to be missed. (What's more, he's just a wonderful human being!).
