nancialisation? - Arınç Onat Kılıç TZID:Europe/London UID:20261124-8ac672c4a0e5f88b01a0ed0b837821c8@warwick.ac.uk CREATED:20261013T070108Z DESCRIPTION:About the Event: This socio-legal research examines the legal and financial construction of blue bonds as water-related sustainable f inance instruments. While the protection of seas and oceans is increasin gly recognised in climate and biodiversity regimes\, it remains the leas t funded global environmental goal. Blue bonds have emerged to channel p rivate finance toward marine and freshwater protection\, beginning with Seychelles’ 2018 issuance. This project critically assesses whether diff erent blue bond modalities align with international environmental and hu man rights law. The research draws on doctrinal analysis and case studie s in the Seychelles\, Belize\, and the Nordic-Baltic region. It adopts a socio-legal perspective informed by critical legal theory and political ecology. Some research findings that will be shared in this seminar inc lude how selected blue bonds fail adequate demonstration of environmenta l additionality and generate tensions with common but differentiated res ponsibilities and respective capabilities principle. About the Speaker: Arınç Onat Kılıç is a doctoral researcher and teaching assistant at the Faculty of Law at the University of Antwerp (Belgium). His research exam ines whether different modalities of blue finance comply with internatio nal environmental law and a human rights-based approach.

Nine country case studies by African scholars provide the most comprehensive documentation of digital ID in their country to date. The chapter author s provide the most sustained conceptual analysis of the forces driving t he rapid roll-out of biometric identification systems\, asking who benef its\, what are the impacts on human rights\, and what power interests ar e served by the billions of dollars being invested in digital-ID and dig ital public infrastructure more widely? In none of the countries studied did citizens ask for the introduction of biometric digital-ID\, prompti ng the question whose agenda is it? The evidence presented in the book s uggests that an alignment of security\, technology\, funder and bureaucr atic interests are driving this change and that already marginalised eth nic and low-income groups are often negatively impacted. About the Speak er Dr. Tony Roberts is an Emeritus Research Fellow at the Institute of D evelopment Studies.

These issues include AI being used as an opportu nity for layoffs and casualisation\; deskilling\; new forms of algorithm ic management and surveillance\; work intensification\; and unpaid data extraction. Simultaneously\, the UK government has pursued a pro-tech-se ctor AI policy – involving multiple new public sector contracts\, data c entres and nuclear power projects – while communities raise urgent quest ions about not only the environmental impact of data centres but also th e governmental and corporate data extraction and use of AI to manage\, p redict\, police and wage war. We will discuss the political and legal qu estions this conjuncture raises: the relationship between labour\, data and value\; state and corporate knowledge and power through new AI and d ata extraction infrastructures\; the unequal distribution of harms\, env ironmental implications and violence\; and the possible relationships be tween labour and community forms of organising and resistance.

It is estimated that the t otal financial assets held by individuals and companies in tax havens am ount to approximately USD 13.25 trillion\, representing roughly 12 perce nt of global GDP. However\, the legal status of such assets is sometimes uncertain. A major challenge arises from the conflict between demands f or transparency – and the associated registers of beneficial owners\, wh ich the international community legitimately advocates – and the individ ual right to privacy and data confidentiality\, which is grounded in int ernational legal instruments (such as data protection legislation). The clash between these two rights presents a significant legal challenge\, necessitating the implementation of new mechanisms\, such as limited tra nsparency\, based on the demonstration of a legitimate legal interest. T his seminar will discuss the criteria distinguishing lawful from unlawfu l business activities involving offshore companies under national and in ternational law\, paying particular attention to the distinction between lawful tax optimisation and unlawful conduct. About the Speaker: Bostja n Turk is Director of the Institute for Civil and Business Law\, Ljublja na. He is also a visiting professor at several European universities\, w ith his teaching and research focussing on cross-cutting issues of law o f obligations and corporate law. Lunch will be provided.
