Rebecca Mignot-Mahdavi is an Assistant Professor of International Law at Sciences Po Law School.
Rebecca Mignot-Mahdavi’s current research is situated in the field of digital security law and global governance. Her research reflects on technolegal modes of governance and their evolution/proliferation in a context where new forms of transnational risk, risk-anticipation strategies and technology are in play. Her expertise in public international law, legal theory, fundamental rights, and criminal law allows her to explore these technolegal phenomena beyond rigid disciplinary boundaries. Her book, Drones and International Law: A Techno-Legal Machinery was published with Cambridge University Press in July 2023. Rebecca is an Editor for the Legal theory section of the Leiden Journal of International Law, a co-founder and coordinator of the ESIL Interest Group on International Law and Technology, and a board member of the Women in International Law Network. She is an Associate Researcher at the TMC Asser Institute and at the International Center for Counter-Terrorism. Prior to joining Sciences Po, she served as a Lecturer in International Law and the LLM and MA Programme Director at the University of Manchester. Rebecca holds a PhD from the European University Institute and the École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales.
