Rabiat Akande Book Launch and Law, Religion, and Social Thought Event

The Osgoode Colloquium on Law, Religion & Social Thought will be hosting a book panel/book launch celebrating our wonderful colleague Rabiat Akande’s new book, Entangled Domains: Empire, Law and Religion in Northern Nigeria.  Her book represents an important contribution to the study of colonialism, law and religion, and African and global legal history. It’s a beautifully written, carefully researched monograph that has already been having an impact in the field.

The book panel will take place on Wednesday, January 24 from 12:30 to 2:00 in room 2027 (Faculty Common Room). We will be welcoming three outstanding scholars who have enthusiastically agreed to engage in conversation around Rabiat’s book:

1. Sam Moyn, Chancellor Kent Professor of Law and History, Yale University
2. Bonny Ibhawoh, Senator William McMaster Chair in Global Human Rights, McMaster University
3. Pamela Klassen, Professor and Chair, Department for the Study of Religion, University of Toronto

We will, of course, also have the pleasure of hearing Professor Akande speak to her work and respond to the panel.

Lunch will be served.
