Ralph is an expert in public international law, and also has an interest in the
interface between international law and related academic disciplines,
including international relations and legal and political theory.
Ralph’s research included work on the administration of territory by
international organizations and the concept of trusteeship in international law
and public policy. His monograph on this topic, International Territorial
Administration: How Trusteeship and the Civilizing Mission Never Went Away
(OUP, 2008), won the Certificate of Merit (book prize) of the American
Society of International Law in 2009. He is currently continuing his work on
the extraterritorial application of human rights law. His publications on this
topic include ‘Legal “Black Hole”?: Extraterritorial state action and
international treaty law on civil and political rights’ (2005) 26(3) Michigan
Journal of International Law 739 – 806.
For his research Ralph has been awarded grants from the UK Arts and
Humanities Research Council (AHRC), the British Academy and the Nuffield
Foundation, and a Research Fellowship from the Leverhulme Trust. In 2010

the UK Leverhulme Trust awarded him a Philip Leverhulme Prize, which is
given to UK-based academics under 40 who are judged to be ‘outstanding
scholars who have made a substantial and recognized contribution to their
particular field of study, recognized at an international level'.
In 2012 Ralph was awarded a €1.1 million Starting Grant (in the ‘consolidator’
category) from the European Research Council. This is funding a five-year
interdisciplinary project on the extraterritorial application of human rights law,
covering both civil and political rights and economic, social and cultural rights,
including the right to development. The project will provide a critical treatment
of the law and policy in this area applying a range of methodological
approaches from cognate disciplines, including political theory, feminist
theory, post-colonial theory and international history. The project, on which
Ralph will work full-time, began in February 2013.
Ralph is a member of the Executive Board of the European Society of
International Law, and the Advisory Panel on Public International Law of the
British Institute for International and Comparative Law. He previously served

Association (ILA), and as one of the two UK representatives on the
international ILA Executive Council, from 2004-2011. Ralph was also
