SUMMARY:

This dissertation investigates the feminist scholarship on sovereignty in international law. While concentrating on the concept of sovereignty, it examines how feminists reframe fundamental concepts and expand the conventional boundaries of the discipline. The work is structured into three distinct chapters. The initial chapter outlines the research's scope and methodology. The second chapter delves into both traditional and critical interpretations of sovereignty, juxtaposing them against feminist analysis, encompassing concepts such as the international legal personality, security and territory. Finally, the third chapter introduces innovative feminist and queer perspectives, casting light on their capacity to transcend binary frameworks in their understandings of sovereignty and highlighting the profound influence of sexuality on the lexicon of international law. This dissertation highlights the connections between colonialism,gender and sexual dynamics, emphasizing the need for more comprehensive critical analysis of international law’s discourse. It also emphasizes the ongoing relevance of feminist and queer perspectives in facilitating broader dialogues for the discipline. Furthermore, this research illuminates the interconnected nature of both general and specific issues of the discipline and encourages critical engagement aimed at dismantling the traditional foundations of the discipline, hidden and alternative histories that might help to uncover the links between sovereignty, violence and inequality not only in the past, but also in the present.
