David Dyzenhaus-edited (2019) publication of Hermann Heller's major Weimar-period work Sovereignty (1927), responsive to albeit far less well-known than Hans Kelsen's 1920 Problem of Sovereignty and Carl Schmitt's 1922 Political Theology.

In this case, the #SupremeCourtofIndia was dealing with appeal filed by a person who is HIV+.
In its judgment delivered yesterday (and is uploaded only sometime ago), the Court noticed and highlighted the fact that Section 34 of the HIV Act imposes obligations upon courts to anonymise the name of the individual concerned affected by HIV positive or AIDS. It has even issued directions in this regard.
But this judgment cause title has the name of the appellant who is HIV+.
We urge someone practising in Supreme Court to take note of this and urge the concerned in the SC Registry to redact the name of the appellant.

#MonsoonSession
Springing a surprise on the last day of the #MonsoonSession, the Govt brings out a 'Supplementary List of Business' and suddenly lists for introduction three bills which may consolidate & amend the Indian Penal Code, Criminal Procedure Code and Evidence Act!

Happy to announce my article, "Disingenuous Interpretation," which will be published in the @MSLawJournal. I argue that debates over theories of constitutional interpretation improperly ignore disingenuous and incompetent interpreters.

I write in @the_hindu on Governors sitting indefinitely on bills passed by Legislature. I argue that the Governors cannot make use of silences in the constitution and perpetrate unconstitutionalism.

Against hundreds of years of congressional action, against solid #SCOTUS precedent, and hundreds of years of history, the Supreme Court held today that states have jurisdiction over certain crimes in Indian Country by judicial fiat. A devastating result for our democracy.

🌍 One of the most important papers I have read in a long time: "Decolonial Comparative Law: A Conceptual Beginning," written by Lena Salaymeh & @MichaelsRalf, offering a roadmap for a pluriversal approach to law & society. Urgent and brilliant.
