*CANCELLED* Monopolizing War: Codifying the Laws of War to Reassert Governmental Authority, 1856–1874

In her lecture Doreen Lustig (Tel Aviv University) will challenge the canonical narrative about civil society’s efforts to discipline warfare during the mid-nineteenth century — a narrative of progressive evolution of Enlightenment-inspired laws of war, later to be termed international humanitarian law (IHL).
