Aman is a PhD candidate at the School of Global and Public Law, Faculty of Law & Justice. His project is interested to find what limits appear in international law’s framing of debates and shaping of contexts; and what law could learn from a critical attention to demands of unrepresented groups and other political entities having stakes in such debates. He is situating the inquiry around the workings of international law in/on Jammu and Kashmir around questions of sovereignty and decolonisation between 1940-early 1960s. His previous training in law has been at the National Law University, Jodhpur, India [B.A., LL.
