Biography

Anna Chadwick joined the School of Law as Lord Kelvin Adam Smith Research Fellow in 2017, after completing a two-year Max Weber Fellowship at the European University Institute, in Florence. She was awarded her doctorate by the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) in November 2015. She holds a Masters Degree in Public International Law and International and UK Human Rights Law (LLM) from King’s College London, and an LLB from the University of Leeds. Prior to her doctoral studies, Anna spent one year working for the legal charity, Reprieve, where she undertook investigation and research on death penalty cases. Anna’s monograph, Law and the Political Economy of Hunger, was published by Oxford University Press in 2019.

Research interests

Anna’s current research focuses on the role of law in valuation practices in financial markets. She is studying the legal nature of money and the significance of global forex markets in the international monetary system.

Ongoing research projects Anna is involved in are:

  • ‘Litigating Corona’ – a study exploring the impact of litigation on government measures to protect public health in response to the coronavirus pandemic (with Gail Lythgoe, Akbar Rasulov, and Christian Tams)
  • ‘Re-costing the Earth’ an investigation into indigenous governance of silviculture in Southern Mexico and the redesign of ‘sustainable development’ consultation and impact assessment (with Julia McClure (PI) and Emma Cardwell, Peter Rosset, and Kate Keller) 
  • ‘Markets, Constitutions, and Inequality’ – an interdisciplinary research network exploring the role of constitutions in shaping economic governance (with Javier Solana, Andrés Palacios-Lleras, Eleonora Lozano-Rodriguez, and Julia McClure)

Anna’s broader research interests include law and political economy, distributive justice, sustainable development, and food insecurity.

Supervision

I would be happy to supervise PhD researchers in areas including public international law, international economic and financial law, law and political economy, and global governance. I would be particularly interested in supervising projects that relate to international development, financial markets and regulation, resource governance, global distributive justice, private ordering and socio-economic rights, as well as topics that engage with development, trade, and finance from a legal perspective.
