BOOK: Michael REYNOLDS, Instruments of Peacemaking 1870-1914 (London: Bloomsbury, 2021), 360 p. ISBN 9781509938308, 72 GBP

Book abstract:
This book focuses on Anglo-American disputes arising out of the civil war in the United States and British interests in the American continent: the Geneva Arbitration, the Venezuela-Guiana Arbitration and the Bhering Sea Arbitration. It draws on those cases as model proceedings which laid the foundations and inspiration for a promotion of international law through the Hague Conferences and by the work of English and American jurists. It considers the encouragement these cases gave to the promotion of public international law and how that contributed to the resolution of inter-state disputes.

On the author:

Michael Reynolds is Visiting Senior Research Fellow in the Department of International History at the London School of Economics and Political Science, UK.

BOOK REVIEW: Wolfgang REINHARD (Freiburg im Breisgau) on Irene DINGEL et al. (eds.), Handbook of Peace in Early Modern Europe (Berlin: DeGruyter Oldenbourg, 2021) (Sehepunkte, MAY 2021)

 

(image source: Sehepunkte)

First paragraph:

Ein Werk wie dieses war längst überfällig. Zwar wurde der Friede schon immer gepriesen und hat im 20. Jahrhundert moralisch sogar die Oberhand gewonnen. Der Krieg wurde verboten. Es gibt heute keine Kriegsminister mehr, sondern nur noch Verteidigungsminister und auch so gut wie keine ordnungsgemäß mit Kriegserklärung begonnenen und mit Friedensschluss beendeten Kämpfe alten Stils. Die Wirklichkeit ist freilich nichtsdestoweniger kriegerischer denn je. Auch die Wissenschaft interessiert sich demgemäß lieber für Krieg als für Frieden. Faktisch gilt eben immer noch die Feststellung von Nietzsches Zarathustra "der gute Krieg ist es, der jede Sache heiligt" (97). Sogar die Menschenrechte müssen heute den Krieg "heiligen". Anthropologisch gesehen ist es ja viel einfacher, einen Konflikt auszulösen und durchzufechten als ihn beizulegen und zu beenden. Entsprechend schwer tut sich die Friedensforschung mit der Gewalt und entsprechend verdienstvoll ist der Versuch dieses Buches, hier mit historischer Friedensforschung massiv wissenschaftlich gegenzusteuern.

BOOK: Marc WELLER, Mark RETTER & Andrea VARGA (eds.), International Law and Peace Settlements (Cambridge: CUP, 2021), 752 p. ISBN 9781108498043, 225 GBP

 

(image source: CUP)

Abstract:
International Law and Peace Settlements provides a systematic and comprehensive assessment of the relationship between international law and peace settlement practice across core settlement issues, e.g. transitional justice, human rights, refugees, self-determination, power-sharing, and wealth-sharing. The contributions address key cross-cutting questions on the legal status of peace agreements, the potential for developing international law, and the role of key actors – such as non-state armed groups, third-state witnesses and guarantors, and the UN Security Council – in the legalisation and internationalisation of settlement commitments. In recent years, significant scholarly work has examined facets of the relationship between international law and peace settlements, through concepts such as jus post bellum and lex pacificatoria. International Law and Peace Settlements drives forward the debate on the legalisation and internationalisation of peace agreements with diverse contributions from leading academics and practitioners in international law and conflict resolution.

BOOK: Stella GHERVAS, Conquering Peace From the Enlightenment to the European Union (Cambridge (Mass.): Harvard UP, FEB 2021), ISBN 9780674975262

 

(image source: Harvard UP)

Abstract:

Political peace in Europe has historically been elusive and ephemeral. Stella Ghervas shows that since the eighteenth century, European thinkers and leaders in pursuit of lasting peace fostered the idea of European unification. Bridging intellectual and political history, Ghervas draws on the work of philosophers from Abbé de Saint-Pierre, who wrote an early eighteenth-century plan for perpetual peace, to Rousseau and Kant, as well as statesmen such as Tsar Alexander I, Woodrow Wilson, Winston Churchill, Robert Schuman, and Mikhail Gorbachev. She locates five major conflicts since 1700 that spurred such visionaries to promote systems of peace in Europe: the War of the Spanish Succession, the Napoleonic Wars, World War I, World War II, and the Cold War. Each moment generated a “spirit” of peace among monarchs, diplomats, democratic leaders, and ordinary citizens. The engineers of peace progressively constructed mechanisms and institutions designed to prevent future wars. Arguing for continuities from the ideals of the Enlightenment, through the nineteenth-century Concert of Nations, to the institutions of the European Union and beyond, Conquering Peace illustrates how peace as a value shaped the idea of a unified Europe long before the EU came into being. Today the EU is widely criticized as an obstacle to sovereignty and for its democratic deficit. Seen in the long-range perspective of the history of peacemaking, however, this European society of states emerges as something else entirely: a step in the quest for a less violent world.

BLOG: Alexander MURPHY on William Penn's Peace Plan at 325 (OUPBlog, 21 DEC 2018)

(image source: OUP)

First paragraph:
2018 marks the 325th anniversary of the publication of William Penn’s Essay towards the Present and Future Peace of Europe, which proposed, among other things, the establishment of a European Parliament. Best remembered as the founder of Pennsylvania, Penn spent most of his life in England and remained deeply concerned about the fate of religious and political liberty across Europe. He proposed his “European Diet, Parliament, or Estates” as a way of promoting peaceful coexistence and breaking out of the cycle of nearly constant European war. A fresh look at Penn’s Essay is a task well worth undertaking, as refugee crises, fears of autocracy in Hungary and Poland, and the future of Brexit continue to roil European waters.

CALL FOR PAPERS: Peace among the Ruins. The Legacy of Andrew Carnegie’s Internationalism and the World Crisis of 1919 (Edinburgh: University of Edinburg, 30 MAY-1 JUN 2019); DEADLINE 14 JAN 2019

(image source: Wikimedia Commons)
The 11th of August 2019 will mark the hundredth anniversary of the death of Andrew Carnegie. While best known in the popular imagination for his ‘rags to riches’ story, rising from an early life of penury in Dunfermline to become America’s leading steel tycoon, Carnegie was also a committed and influential internationalist. By the age of forty, Carnegie spent the majority of his time not on his considerable business ventures, but on becoming a scholar and public intellectual. He dreamed of the reunion of Britain and America, became a fervent acolyte of Herbert Spencer, publicly chastised the United States’ turn to imperialism following the Spanish-American War, and called for a world order founded on international law. Carnegie also devoted his largesse to these causes. Most notably as the patron of the Peace Palace in The Hague, which today houses the International Court of Justice, and the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, still widely considered to be one of the most influential think-tanks in the world.
2019 will also witness the hundredth anniversary of several epochal events in the history of internationalism – the Versailles Treaty, the signing of the covenant of the League of Nations, and the foundation of the Communist International. These anniversaries present an opportune moment to return to Andrew Carnegie’s thought and philanthropy, and to examine his contribution to the history, development and contemporary practice of internationalism. The retrenchment of internationalism in recent years endows these topics with a new and urgent significance, while also raising a number of interesting parallels with the fate of the internationalism of Carnegie’s own day – mired as it was by war, protectionism, crumbling empires, economic depression, and the stillborn birth of the League of Nations. It was this period of crisis that gave way both to the Second World War, and to a recrudescent internationalism that paved the way for the United Nations and the post-war international order. Its legacies are manifold for today.
Drawing on these anniversaries, the University of Edinburgh – an apposite location since Carnegie’s birthplace, Dunfermline, lies just across the River Forth – is hosting a conference focusing on some of the themes of Carnegie’s life and the year 1919. The conference will consist of a number of panels, grouped around five keynote addresses by the invited speakers.
Invited Speakers
- Dr Duncan Bell, University of Cambridge
- Professor Erez Manela, Harvard University
- Professor Patricia Owens, University of Sussex
- Professor Inderjeet Parmar, University of London
- Professor Ingrid Sharp, Leeds University

ENCYCLOPEDIA: CONTRIBUTION Jacques GILLEN, Henri La Fontaine [1914-1918 Online Encyclopedia of the Great War]

(image source: 1914-1918 online)

First paragraph:
Although he was a Nobel Prize winner, the name of Henri La Fontaine has somewhat fallen into obscurity. At the time of his Nobel Peace Prize award in 1913, however, he was a fundamental figure in the pacifist movement. The prize was a reward for his activities at the International Peace Bureau (IPB), of which he had been president since 1907, as well as his major contribution to various associations working to promote peace.

CONFERENCE: Frieden. Theorien, Bilder und Strategien von der Antike bis heute (Münster: LWL-Museum für Kunst und Kultur, 22-25 May 2018)

(image source: Wikimedia Commons)
Auf der öffentlichen Tagung „FRIEDEN. Theorien, Bilder und Strategien von der Antike bis heute“ des Exzellenzclusters „Religion und Politik“ der WWU widmen sich international ausgewiesene Wissenschaftlerinnen und Wissenschaftler vom 22. bis 25. Mai 2018 der Frage, warum Menschen zu allen Zeiten den Frieden wünschten, seine Bewahrung auf Dauer aber nie gelang. Anhand zahlreicher historischer Beispiele der europäischen Geschichte diskutieren sie Strategien, Verhaltensmuster und Verfahren, mit denen sich Menschen von der Antike bis heute um Herstellung und Wahrung des Friedens bemühten. Sie richten das Augenmerk darauf, wie viele der Bilder, Rituale und Strategien zeitüberdauernd Geltungskraft behielten. Zugleich zeigen sie zeittypische Veränderungen und ihre Ursachen auf. Interessierte sind zur Tagung eingeladen.
