Proposals should respond to the workshop prompt below. We encourage proposals that speak to law and the humanities, that aim for a highly interactive and collaborative workshop. The workshop will take place virtually on 30 May 2022, where the accepted proposals will be presented and discussed. After the workshop we will move towards publication of a special edition of a journal issue.
We cannot give up writing stories about what it means to be human that displace those that are at the foundation of Empire.
