Abstract
This afterword calls for anti-imperial epistemic justice. In making this call, it is specifically concerned with knowledge production on rights and justice politics in most of the world. Anti-imperial epistemic justice calls time on the systemic epistemic erasure of the urgent demands of rights politics in most of the world. This rights politics in most of the world is heavily invested in ‘life rights’ including the right to life itself, which it seeks to realise through interweaving a whole spectrum of existing rights, including citizenship rights but also through envisioning new directions for rights thinking including bringing into being new rights. The new direction in rights and citizenship thinking destabilises the methodological nationalism of mainstream rights frameworks, queries its methodological abstraction and enables a vision outside of methodological individualism and towards rights and citizenship that encompass the planet.
