[En anglais seulement] Third World Approaches to International Law (TWAIL) has emerged as a particular type of critique within Public International Law. This approach has become popular among students and young researchers who are turning to TWAIL critique to address a wide range of issues in the international arena from global justice, wars, human rights, environment, development, trade negotiations and much else. This presentation will examine the TWAIL critique, what is distinctive about it and the challenges it faces going forward.
