As we approach the start of the new academic year, we would like to wish a warm welcome to our new colleagues but also a fond farewell to those we have had to say goodbye to.

Warwick Law School’s Dr Christine Schwöbel-Patel has taken up a prestigious Alexander von Humboldt fellowship for experienced researchers. For the next year, Christine will be based at the Humboldt University of Berlin, where she is working on the topic ‘Making States “Safe” for Investment: International Criminal Law and Imperial Rentier Capitalism’.
