Feminist approaches to international law have been mischaracterised by
the mainstream of the discipline as being a niche field that pertains
only to women’s lived experiences and their participation in
decision-making processes. Exemplifying how feminist approaches can be
used to analyse all areas of international law, this book applies
posthuman feminist theory to examine the regulation of new and
emerging military technologies, international environmental law and
the conceptualisation of the sovereign state and other modes of legal
personality in international law. Noting that most posthuman
scholarship to date is primarily theoretical, this book also
contributes to the field of posthumanism through its application of
posthuman feminism to international law, working to bridge the theory
and practice divide by using posthuman feminism to design and call for
legal change. This interdisciplinary book draws on an array of fields,
including philosophy, queer and feminist theories, postcolonial and
critical race theories, computer science, critical disability studies,
science and technology studies, marine biology, cultural and media
studies, Indigenous onto-epistemologies, critical legal theory,
political science and beyond to provide a holistic analysis of
international law and its inclusions and exclusions. This
interdisciplinary book will appeal to students and scholars with
interests in legal, feminist and posthuman theory, as well as those
concerned with the contemporary challenges faced by international law.
