“The last half century has seen a number of more or less critical or radical projects emerge in the (English-language) legal discipline, from certain wings of socio-legal studies and feminisms, to US and UK critical legal studies, critical race theory, Marxist legal theory, and Third World Approaches to International Law (TWAIL). To what extent, I want to ask, can these be understood as movements of the left? What is the relationship between a movement of legal thought and a concrete political tradition? By placing these intellectual projects in their historic context, exploring the material conditions out of which they arose and the institutional coordinates in which they operated, I ask what it means to be a legal movement of the left today. Recognising the US/UK-centric nature of my analysis, I am eager to discuss and learn how my study of UK- and US-legal movements compares with the Brazilian experience.”
