This was a great event, largely because Kinstler, Hassan, and Roth are all so inspiring. Thanks to @mcnallyjackson.bsky.social for hosting.

If you are teaching international law in the fall, the sixth edition just went to the printers—with extensive updates throughout and entirely new problems on the South China Sea, the Chagos Archipelago, Indigenous persons, Western Sahara, and the IMF.

I'll be presenting an early draft of this paper on Fri., 11/15, at 3 pm, at the @asilorg.bsky.social MYM. If you're there, I hope you'll push me hard to defend my positions so that I can further sharpen my thinking. (Added bonus: @harlangcohen.bsky.social is moderating.)
