Associate Professor of International Law
Interests
Andrew’s research explores topical and structural questions of international law and global governance, with a current focus on the role, regulation and responsibility of global private actors and their relationship with international law and the state. He is also interested in the interaction between international law and other legal/normative systems; the law of immunity; the impact of digital technologies and big data on democracy and global governance; and the ways in which international law exacerbates and/or responds to human vulnerability, disenfranchisement and inequality. Among other things, Andrew is currently working on a project called "Everywhere and Nowhere: The Transnational Corporation in the Global Legal Order", and co-organising a project on corporate movement and nationality ("Making Companies Global: How Corporations Became Nationals of a State").
Andrew teaches and supervises in the areas of international law and global governance, including human rights, political economy, technology and the law, and globalisation.
