Evan Fox-Decent is Full Professor at the Faculty of Law at McGill University in Montreal, where he has held a Canada Research Chair (Tier 1) in Cosmopolitan Law and Justice since October 2019. He is the author of several books such as Sovereignty’s Promise: The State as Fiduciary (OUP 2012) and - together with his regular co-author Evan Criddle (William & Mary Law School) - Fiduciaries of Humanity: How International Law Constitutes Authority (OUP 2016). As these titles indicate, Evan’s research interests span both private and public law, and his project may be described as one of trying to explicate the concept of sovereignty in public law by analogy to the ideas of fiduciary rights and obligations in private law.
In this episode, Evan talks to us about his recent article, Mandatory Multilateralism (American Journal of International Law, 2019), again co-authored with Evan Criddle. The article is the basis of a forthcoming book, tentatively entitled Governing a Divided World: Mandatory Cooperation under International Law.
