Professor Heidi Matthews researches and teaches in the areas of international criminal law, the law of war, international legal history and political theory. Her work theorizes contemporary shifts in the practice and discourse of the global legal regulation of political violence, with particular attention to history and gender, as well as political, critical and aesthetic theory.

Today Heidi and I talk about two of her articles, one about whether #MeToo can be deemed a modern sex panic and the other about the concept of creeps and the ways in which being deemed a creep fits into the presumption of being a sexual threat and pariah.
