The Political Economy of Decolonisation In this seminar we will be looking at a range of questions relating to the legal structures governing decolonisation as they pertain, in particular, to questions of political economy. Beginning with a discussion of the legal inheritance of the newly decolonised world, we will examine the broader debates surrounding the Bandung agenda, the New International Economic Order and Permanent Sovereignty over Natural Resources. In the process, we will bring into account the emergent law of foreign investment, the role of the International Financial Institutions and the GATT.
