The voice of West Africans in international law is important… it's time we hear it. In this episode, we talk to Dr. Inge Van Hulle about her new book - Britain and International Law in West Africa: The Practice of Empire. We discuss the influence ex colonial powers have had on the development of the international legal system, changing narratives about our perceptions of West Africa, and whether we need to rethink how we teach and research international law.
