Dr. Lee Cabatingan is a Chancellor’s ADVANCE postdoctoral fellow. Lee works with Dr. Mona Lynch in the Department of Criminology, Law, and Society, within the School of Social Ecology.

Lee seeks to explore how public debates over race, crime, and (under)development in Trinidad challenge classic theories of sovereignty. She hopes that this research will lead to a rethinking of the relationship between law and sovereignty and allow for a globally southern perspective to find a voice amongst predominantly globally northern theories.
