Welcome to the MAY 2021 issue of ANZSIL Perspective.
My editorial team and I are pleased to publish the latest insightful contributions to the ANZSIL Perspective online platform www.anzsilperspective.com where you can find all our latest Perspectives and our archive. In addition to accessing our publications, please let us know if you have any suggestions regarding accessibility of the new site.
As ANZSIL Perspective continues to grow, we look forward to monthly or fast turnaround contributions which can particularly reflect our regional representation in international law practice and academia.
We are particularly keen to encourage book reviews as well as articles on areas of interest to the ANZSIL membership, based in Australia and New Zealand as well as topics with broader international law implications.
This month we are very pleased to have three excellent perspectives on the election of ICC prosecutor Karim Khan QC, COVID-19 and Trade-Related Security Exceptions and Respect for International Humanitarian Law Beyond the Battlefield.
As ever, we are keen to encourage contributions from across our membership and the wider international legal community, especially early career researchers such as doctoral candidates, postdoctoral researchers and legal professionals who have recently entered practice. I am also pleased that our contributions in 2020 included discussion and responses to earlier publications so that ANZSIL Perspective is also contributing to continued debate and education. I look forward to the submissions for June 2021.
The deadline for the next ANZSIL Perspective is 18 June 2021. The current call for Perspectives and submission details and guidelines are on the ANZSIL Perspective webpage.
The views expressed in contributions to ANZSIL Perspective are those of the authors. Those views are not necessarily shared by ANZSIL or the Editors of Perspective.
