| dc.description.abstract | This article challenges the presumptions of Third World Approaches to International Law (TWAIL) scholarship by examining the rise of China, a “non-European” country, in the global economic order. Is Chinese capital separate from structurally-entrenched global capital often considered Western? Is China going to use the already established hegemony of “universal” and “positivist” international legal regimes to further global exploitation, marginalization, and exclusion? Will the dependent state and local elite of the Third World countries resist such exploitation? This Article reflects on these questions by addressing labor conditions under Chinese investment in Pakistan. | en_US |
