New book! Ending impunity for international law violations: Palestinian Bedouins and the risk of forced displacement (Hart 2025), edited by Alice Panepinto together with colleagues Bana Abu Zuluf, Brendan C Browne, Ahmad Amara, Munir Nuseibeh and Triestino Mariniello. This open access edited collection is the first book-length academic publication on the Palestinian Bedouins at risk of forced displacement in the Central West Bank and Greater Jerusalem area. At its core are two questions: firstly; what are the humanitarian vulnerabilities they face and how are they produced/constructed? And secondly, how does protracted impunity for international law violations drive humanitarian protection risks for them? It interweaves international law, community-based empirical research and interdisciplinary perspectives, to offer the broadest possible framework for understanding these complex and complicated questions. This book is one of the core outputs of AHRC-funded project AH/T007540/1 (2020-2024). You can find out more on the publisher's website: bloomsbury.com/uk/ending-impu… And you can download an open access copy of the book at this link: pure.qub.ac.uk/en/publication…
In less than 48 hours 100 scholars, judges and legal experts have signed our letter against @edgehill's dismissal of our colleague, a mother of 2 kids, while she is under cancer treatment. Join and share our petition here: docs.google.com/document/d/1Pi…
Regrettably, I find myself forced to step down as external member to the International Justice and Human Rights Research Centre at Edge Hill University (UK). This follows the University’s dismissal of a distinguished scholar - also mother of two young kids (name undisclosed for privacy purpose) - on "grounds of attendance", due to her being treated for CANCER. I find absolutely outrageous that a place that teaches int'l law and human rights can take such an appalling decision, at such a critical moment in someone's life. I urge once again the University to immediately reinstate the employee and ascertain any responsibilities associated with her dismissal. @edgehill @ehudismissal
Congratulations to our very own Dr Ciara Hackett, who has been promoted to Reader in the School of Law at Queen's University Belfast.
#Gaza has become hell on earth. Families continue to seek refuge, trying to escape war, but there is no such thing as a safe place in the Gaza Strip. No one is safe: not civilians, not aid workers, no one has been spared. We need a #CeasefireNow.

University of Oxford administrators called police officers on students taking part in an encampment in solidarity with Palestine on Thursday morning. At least 14 students were arrested inside the building while two were kept in police vans, according to protesters at the scene.
We are aware that students staging a peaceful sit-in at the University Offices in Wellington Square have been arrested by police and that further arrests of students and supporters have been threatened. 1/3

In light of the ICC application for arrest warrants, the rewriting of history has begun.
