Dr Musab Younis, BA, Nottingham; MPhil & DPhil, Oxford.Senior Lecturer in Politics and International RelationsEmail: m.younis@qmul.ac.ukOffice Hours: No office hoursProfileTeachingResearchPublicationsSupervisionProfileI work on international political thought, with a focus on race, empire and anticolonialism especially during the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries. My first book, On the Scale of the World: The Formation of Black Anticolonial Thought, will be published by the University of California Press in 2022. I am currently working on an intellectual history of global inequality, tentatively titled The Pillage of Distant Worlds, alongside projects on the intimate politics of imperialism; Whiteness; queerness in film; and the idea of the ‘South’. I did my MPhil (2012) and DPhil (PhD, 2017) at the University of Oxford and was a Lecturer at Cardiff University (2017-18), before joining QMUL in 2018. I teach for QMUL at the University of London Institute in Paris and I am a regular contributor to the London Review of Books.Undergraduate TeachingPOLM973 – Globalisation and the International Political Economy of Development (MAIR Paris) POLM979 – Doing IR Research: Theories, Methods and Data (MAIR Paris)ResearchResearch Interests: theories of imperialism anticolonial history and theory Black Atlantic political thought the politics of race in France the international politics of Haiti global inequality feminist and queer anticolonial thought film and documentary Third Worldism Whiteness Examples of research funding:Musab’s doctoral research was funded by the UK Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC).PublicationsBOOKS 2022- On the Scale of the World: The Formation of Black Anticolonial Thought (University of California Press, forthcoming 2022) ARTICLES AND CHAPTERS 2023- ‘Anticolonial Theory and Colonial Enclosure in Contemporary Europe,’ with Alexandra Reza, forthcoming in South Atlantic Quarterly special issue ‘Southern Questions’, edited by Reza, A. and Younis, M. 2022- ‘History and Postcolonialism,’ in Thinking World Politics Otherwise, edited by Laura Shepherd, Nivi Manchanda, Rhys Crilley, Cai Wilkinson and Stefanie Fishel (forthcoming) 2022- ‘The Haitian Revolution,’ in The Oxford Handbook on History and International Relations, edited by Mlada Bukovansky, Edward Keene, Maja Spanu and Chris Reus-Smit, Oxford University Press (forthcoming) 2018- ‘Race, the World and Time: Haiti, Liberia and Ethiopia (1914–45),’ Millennium: Review of International Studies 46/3, 352–370 2017- ‘‘United by Blood’: Race and Transnationalism During the Belle Époque,’ Nations and Nationalism 23/3 JOURNAL SPECIAL ISSUES 2022- ‘Southern Questions: Theory at Europe’s Colonial Frontiers,’ special issue of South Atlantic Quarterly co-edited with Alexandra Reza, with contributions from Timothy Brennan, Chiara Cartuccia, Nicola Dieng, Vincent Piers Moystad, Maria Luisa Palumbo, AbdouMaliq Simone, Annie Teriba and Giulia Torino.
