60Why indigenous land rights have not been superseded – a critical application of Waldron’s theory of supersessionCritical Review of International Social and Political Philosophy 25 (4): 480-495. 2022.Jeremy Waldron introduced the notion of rights supersession into the philosophical discussion about restitutive justice in cases of historic injustices. He refers to land claims by indigenous peoples as a real-world example and as an application of his theory of rights supersession. He implies that the changes that have taken place in settler states since the first years of colonialism are the kind of changes that lead to a supersession of land rights. The article proposes to unbundle property r…Read more

57Settler Colonialism, Decolonization, and Climate ChangeJournal of Applied Philosophy 40 (4): 624-641. 2023.The article proposes that climate change makes enduring colonial injustices and structures visible. It focuses on the imposition and dominance of colonial concepts of land and self-determination on Indigenous peoples in settler states.

8Welche Art von Unterdrückung sollte im Fokus eines transnationalen, anti-imperialistischen Feminismus stehen?Zeitschrift für Praktische Philosophie 9 (1): 335-370. 2022.Serene Khaders Decolonizing Universalism präsentiert eine erhellende Theorie darüber, wie ein antiimperialer, transnationaler Feminismus heute verstanden werden sollte. Im Mittelpunkt ihrer Theorie steht eine Definition von Feminismus als Widerstand gegen sexistische Unterdrückung, welche sie als systematische Benachteiligung, die Frauen wegen ihres Frau-Seins erfahren, versteht. Allerdings begründet Khader nur sehr kursorisch, warum diese Definition von Unterdrückung am besten für einen antiimp…Read more

John Simmons: Boundaries of Authority and Fair SharesIn Kevin W. Gray (ed.), Global Encyclopedia of Territorial Rights, Springer. 2023.This chapter critically discusses John Simmons’ theory of territorial rights. It then argues that while highly coherent and elegant, Simmons’ theory neglects the harms of cultural loss and loss of collective self-determination which colonialism and climate change cause. It outlines the Lockean elements of his theory and their implications for Simmons’ stance on restitution of land rights after historic injustice as well as redistribution of land in the face of a growing population and/ or a shri…Read more
