Reclaiming Legality: A Global South Perspective on the Crisis of International Law challenges the fading myth of Western universality and redefines the foundations of legality in an emerging multipolar world.

Drawing on the traditions of the Global South and the Third World Approaches to International Law (TWAIL), this work exposes how universal norms were historically used to sustain hierarchy rather than equality. Through a rigorous and deeply researched analysis of the Ukraine conflict as a turning point in global order, it examines how sovereignty, intervention, and international justice have become battlegrounds of competing civilizational visions.

From the collapse of legal neutrality to the weaponization of economics, from the failure of humanitarian exceptionalism to the search for regional self-determination, Reclaiming Legality offers an authoritative and provocative re-interpretation of international law in the twenty-first century.

A must-read for scholars, diplomats, jurists, and anyone concerned with the end of Western hegemony and the rise of a truly plural world order.

Cor P.M. van Houte, Doctor of Laws.
