Speaking of Statehood: Initial Findings Regarding the UN Bid in the Lives of Palestinian Lawyers.

 

Dr. Michelle presented the results of her research which she carried out in Palestine over the last 2 months. During this period, she concentrated on interviews with various local actors engaged in the field of international law and especially those working directly and indirectly on the recent membership and statehood initiatives before the UN. She used these encounters to raise broader questions about the way in which professionals under occupation live a life through law and what statehood would mean for them in their work.
