Empire and the international -- pt. 2. Nationalist and legal passions : the modernist renewal of internationalism -- pt. 3. Of law and fantasy -- pt. 4. Ambivalence and power.Ethnic, nationalist, and religious conflicts and debates about international intervention have been central global preoccupations of the past hundred years. Such debates, this volume argues, were first framed in their modern form during the interwar period, when a “Modernist break” (akin to that in literature, philosophy, and the arts) transformed the way such conflicts were viewed. Internationalists began to cast identity-based claims — whether those of anti-colonialists or European separatists — not only as mortal dangers to international order but as indispensable to its revitalization. Drawing on cultural studies, postcolonial theory, and psychoanalysis — with case studies ranging from 1930's Ethiopia to 1990's Jerusalem — this volume looks at both the origins and legacy of these debates, offering a radical reinterpretation of modern internationalism.Legal history library ;v. 6.Legal history library.Studies in the history of international law ;v. 3.Intervention (International law)Intervention (International law)HistoryInternational lawNationalismIntervention (International law)Intervention (International law)History.International law.Nationalism.341.5/84Berman Nathaniel476144MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910823945503321Passion and ambivalence1750155UNINA
