The Nordic Journal of International Law has published a Special Edition on Nordic Approaches to International Law.  I was invited to address whether or not there is a Nordic Approach to Promoting Women’s Rights within International Law.

The complexity of formulating a Nordic feminist foreign policy and the appointment of Nordic women as creators of international law is explored.  The article is available here
