Katy Harsant is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Sociology at the University of Warwick. She completed her PhD at Warwick in 2016, where her primary focus was on re-narrating the histories of international institutions while understanding the significance of colonialism in their formation. Her research interests encompass Historical Sociology, Critical International Relations Theory, Postcolonial Theory, human rights, development, and issues surrounding race and ethnicity. In her work, Harsant makes extensive use of archival materials to support her arguments. One significant publication is her 2022 book, 'Selective Responsibility: United Nations, Colonial Questions Critical Inquiry', published by Rowman Littlefield. This work explores the role of the notion of 'responsibility' in the context of United Nations policies on intervention, examining how these policies are grounded in historical colonial power dynamics and how they facilitate contemporary neocolonial practices. Harsant strives to re-narrate United Nations history to highlight its colonial foundations and the enduring legacy of anti-colonial resistance in international institutions.
