Discussant:<\/strong> Christiane Wilke is an Associate Professor in Law, 杏吧原创 University.

Affective Justice: The International Criminal Court and the Pan-Africanist Pushback<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Since its inception in 2001, the International Criminal Court (ICC) has been met with resistance by various African states and their leaders, who see the court as a new iteration of colonial violence and control. In Affective Justice<\/i>\u00a0Kamari Maxine Clarke explores the African Union’s pushback against the ICC in order to theorize affect’s role in shaping forms of justice in the contemporary period. Drawing on fieldwork in The Hague, the African Union in Addis Ababa, sites of postelection violence in Kenya, and Boko Haram’s circuits in Northern Nigeria, Clarke formulates the concept of affective justice\u2014an emotional response to competing interpretations of justice\u2014to trace how affect becomes manifest in judicial practices. By detailing the effects of the ICC\u2019s all-African indictments, she outlines how affective responses to these call into question the “objectivity” of the ICC\u2019s mission to protect those victimized by violence and prosecute perpetrators of those crimes. In analyzing the effects of such cases, Clarke provides a fuller theorization of how people articulate what justice is and the mechanisms through which they do so.<\/p>\n
