Pr.Thomas Spijkerboer, (VU) : Leçon inaugurale de la Chaire Francqui

Louvain-La-Neuve

Le Pr.Thomas Spijkerboer est Professeur de droit des migrations à la Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam.

La leçon inaugurale a pour thème : 

Confronting the colonial structure of international migration law. 

Legal doctrine in the global North asserts that it is well-established in international law that states have the right to control migration, as a consequence of which individuals have an international law-based claim to admission or non-removal only in exceptional cases. This legal doctrine has been shaped by colonialism and continues to have a colonial deep structure. Legal doctrine in formerly colonized parts of the world does not necessarily share Northern doctrine. How can legal academics confront this pluralist and contested character of the field they are working in?

La leçon inaugurale aura lieu en numérique le mercredi 20 janvier 2021, à 17h30.

Veuillez enregistrer votre participation numérique jusqu'au 15 janvier via eventmanager.ugent.be/spijkerboer, l'inscription est obligatoire.
