Rate My Professor Mostafa Haider

Haider serves as an Editor of the International Trade and Business Law Review, a peer-reviewed journal established in 1995 that publishes articles, case notes, comments, and book reviews on international trade, business law, and related governance challenges amid global crises such as climate change, inequality, investment disputes, sustainable development, and regulatory frameworks in finance, technology, and human rights. He collaborates with Dr Sharmin Tania to manage submissions and queries. In his scholarly work, Haider has published 'Behind Women’s Emancipation and Oppression: Contested Expertise in Global Microcredit Governance' in the Australian Feminist Law Journal (2023, Vol. 49, pp. 239-265). This article analyzes expert debates framing microcredit as either emancipatory or oppressive for women, drawing on interviews with three rural Bangladeshi women to compare their perspectives with those of microcredit experts. It argues that experts overestimate their knowledge, underestimate women's expertise, and position women as passive subjects in social and legal reform, thereby perpetuating knowledge hierarchies in global microcredit governance. Another key publication is 'Performing Community in an International Law Classroom' in The Western Australian Law Teachers' Review (2025, Vol. 3, p. 91). Here, Haider reflects on teaching community in a Public International Law unit at Curtin Law School, using reflective participation and performance analysis for class discussions. He frames community as a contested political sublime in international legal scholarship, entangled with global struggles, enabling students and teachers to experience and reformulate community through classroom performance.
