Modernity here and there, a response to comments on The Life and Death of States
This text responds to the review forum on The Life and Death of States featuring Clara Maier, Kathryn Ciancia, Charles Maier, and Nathaniel Berman. It considers the place of Central Europe and the Habsburg Empire in our geographies of the modern world. Rather than hopelessly hamstrung by backwardness, the empire and its subjects were, in Clara Maier's words, "simply struggling more insistently than complacent Westerners with the perplexities of t…

Life and Death of States
Towards a History of the Decolonization of International Law. An Introduction to the Special Issue
After an age of excitement of historians and lawyers with renewed interest in the imperial origins and settings of international law, recent scholarship has begun to turn to the history of the field’s decolonization. The Third World Approaches to International Law movement, of course, arose out of and continues to call for a decolonization of international law. But the fact is that, as of today, we know very little in historical terms about how t…
Law and the Time of Angels
Recent method wars in international legal scholarship turn on the problem of law in time. Rejecting historians' focus on context and their “policing of anachronism,” prominent legal scholars like Anne Orford and Martti Koskenniemi have argued that the workings of modern law are not governed by the narrow strictures of sequential chronology and that legal scholars require alternate methods that reflect law's transfer of meaning through time. Conte…
Remaking Central Europe
This book presents Central Europe as a key laboratory for the interwar international order. A new regional order of national states, ushered into being by the dissolution of the multinational Habsburg Empire in 1918, was born alongside a new framework for international governance. The region became the key test case for new international organizations like the League of Nations: problems of border drawing, financial collapse, endemic disease, nat…
Central Europe as Ground Zero of the New International Order
This article presents post-Habsburg central and eastern Europe as the flagship campus of the new international order of 1919. It shows how the international project of imperial liquidation, and the predicament of the successor states, produced a wide range of new international schemes, techniques, and frameworks—spanning the economy, crime, humanitarianism, and rights—that significantly shaped the global governance of today. Where historians cust…

Spectral Legal Personality in Interwar International Law
That spirits and gods, devils and idols, should be endowed with legal rights and enjoyments is again a practice as common as it seems to be ancient. Perhaps you will go to the length of saying that much the most interesting person that you ever knew was persona ficta. In May 1926, the German Society for International Law discussed the foundational question of the subjects of international law. “Who can appear independently before international fo…

Internationalisms
This is a pioneering survey of the rise of internationalism as a mainstream political idea mobilised in support of the ambitions of indigenous populations, feminists and anti-colonialists, as well as politicians, economists and central bankers. Leading scholars trace the emergence of intergovernmental organisations such as the League of Nations, the United Nations, the International Labour Organisation and the World Health Organisation, and the c…
Mandatory Interpretation
Caesar dominus et supra grammaticam : the emperor is ruler over grammar as well. Carl Schmitt, 1933 1 The League of Nations was a prodigious producer and consumer of texts. For all the minutes taken, correspondence circulated, questionnaires composed, reports received and petitions considered, historians have had little to say about the League and textual style. This article contends that the League’s mandate system was more than a political inst…
It is the hunter and you are the harpooned dolphin
This article reads Amos Oz's memoir A Tale of Love and Darkness against the long tradition of encountering Jerusalem in literature. It argues that Oz's impulse to write arises from a troubled relationship with the feminine: his creative act consists in a recurring reflex of repulsion when confronted with women and "their emotions." The psycho-sexual conflation of women, memory and Jerusalem – and especially the need both to flee from and master t…
