Some reflections on a research journey in law and society

A research journey is not planned but develops according to where one is geographically, and the politics of the broader world, and of scholarship, at the time. My journey took me from South Africa, through England, to Africa in the period after decolonisation, and finally to an inter-disciplinary School at La Trobe University. My research, with its foci on colonialism, and a post-colonial world that continues to be dominated by the Global North, reflects this. Full text also available via Informit

Abstract

A research journey is not planned but develops according to where one is geographically, and the politics of the broader world, and of scholarship, at the time. My journey took me from South Africa, through England, to Africa in the period after decolonisation, and finally to an inter-disciplinary School at La Trobe University. My research, with its foci on colonialism, and a post-colonial world that continues to be dominated by the Global North, reflects this. Full text also available via Informit
