4. Call for papers: Nordic jurists and legal internationalism, 1880s-1970s (Kopenhaga/Sztokholm, wrzesień 2022 r./styczeń 2023 r.)
W dniach 12-14 września 2022 r. w Kopenhadze i 26-28 stycznia 2023 r. w Sztokholmie odbędą się warsztaty pt. "Nordic jurists and legal internationalism, 1880s-1970s".
Potencjalne tematy wystąpień to m.in.:
• Who were the key proponents of international law in Norden between the 1880s and 1970s? What are their commonalities and differences? Which regional and global arenas, institutions and networks shaped their worldview and work?
• May we speak of a particular Nordic legal internationalism, or was it mostly a local replica of broader trends? Which were the dominant intellectual currents that shaped Nordic legal scholars and practitioners of international law, and how may we understand these in relation to the 19th and 20th century development of legal thought?
• How did these individuals understand their own role/s in the development of an international legal order, in particular in relation to their respective national legislatures? Were they to remain, as Alf Ross (1953) contended with reference to the national level, experts focused only on matters “of legal sociology [retssociologiske]” and compromises between the interests of dominant groups (Om ræt og rettfærdighet, 1953, p.421)? Or, ought they have professional positions independent of any type of legislature and influential parties on the question of internationalism? What part should/could moral considerations play, if any, in such positions? Did ideas and practice when it came to their role/s differ and, if so, how and why?
• What understandings and positions existed in relation to the on-going changes to the concept/principle of State Sovereignty among these jurists? How did they conceptualise phenomena like e.g. the ‘international legal order’ and ‘international society’? Was there a particularly Nordic approach to ideas of the rights and duties of sovereign states both to each other and to individuals within their jurisdiction?
• How did international law cement itself in the fabric of Nordic foreign politics? In which ways has it been instrumentalized – either in word or in deed – as part of the Nordics’ conduct on the world stage? Did it have an impact on the timing of Nordic foreign policy rhetoric becoming so-called legalised? Which maladies, dilemmas, contradictions, and/or silences may we discern in the long history of Nordic legal internationalism?
• Is or was there a tradition for Nordic legal internationalism to presuppose the existence of the state or did internationalism turn to ‘supra-nationalism’ at any point? How did Nordic legal internationalism navigate a political ocean where ideas of regional and world federation existed?
• Nordic jurists as a group constituted an elite dominated by men. Which standards, habitus or episteme did this group exhibit/adhere to? What masculinities can we see at play when we study them, and what implications did these have for a possible Nordic legal internationalism? What room was there for marginalised voices (sex, gender, class, geography, ethnicity etc.) to break through in this milieu, if any?
