This document provides Data Annexes for a Report on Decolonial Turn in U.S. Comparative Law, indicating ongoing colonial legacies.
This document contains the Data and Survey Annexes for the United States National Report on "The Decolonial Turn in Comparative Law," prepared for Topic 2 (General Legal Theory and Legal Philosophy) of the 2026 Quadrennial General Congress of the International Academy of Comparative Law in Berlin. Annex One provides the complete Questionnaire formulated by Rapporteur général Barbara Pasa, interwoven with the specific responses from the U.S. National Reporters. These responses address the historical and modern intersections of U.S. law with internal and external colonial legacies, Indigenous rights (American Indian Law), and the emerging political and legal challenge of "recolonialism." Annex Two serves as a curated empirical bibliography, cataloging 82 scholarly works by 54 U.S.-affiliated scholars published between 2015 and 2025. This dataset maps the contemporary footprint of decolonial, post-colonial, and anti-colonial theory within U.S. comparative legal scholarship, categorized by Indigenous policy, constitutional/interstate law, and international comparative law. This document is intended to be read as a companion to the main narrative report published in the American Journal of Comparative Law.
