NOTES ON CONTRIBUTORS
Jason Beckett Jason studied law at the universities of Dundee (LLB)
and Glasgow (LLM and PhD); and taught at the Universities of
Newcastle and Leicester. He initially tried hard to defend a mainstream
understanding of Public International Law from the critical challenge.
He failed. And reluctantly accepted that the mainstream project was
neither intellectually coherent nor viable. Since then, he has analysed
the radical indeterminacy of international law; and the structural,
political, economic, and intellectual biases, this hides from sight.
rough analysing the religious structure of legal discourse, and
the silencing of non-European-White-Male voices, he has critiqued
the pursuit of universal truths and justices. Jason’s current research
focuses on poverty, intersectionality, cultural pluralism, and the self-
justication of mainstream legal analysis. is involves acknowledging
the limitations, or futility, of abstract legal critique; and advocates for
alternative approaches to international justice.
Jason has delivered conference papers and invited presentations in
Africa, Australasia, Europe, the Middle East, and North America,
occasionally to some acclaim. He always includes his current research
in his teaching, and oen develops research projects from his
classroom experiences. At heart he is a classroom teacher, focusedon
the edication and development of his students, rather than the simple
transfer of knowledge through lecture or writing.
