DESCRIPTION:ABOUT THE SESSION: Dr Bohrer will present extracts from curren
 t work-in-progress interrogating the historical narratives about the devel
 opment of international humanitarian law (IHL) dominant within IHL itself\
 , and their implications. \n\n**Please contact md718@cam.ac.uk for a copy 
 of the paper\, or to be added to the seminar mailing list**\n\nABOUT THE S
 EMINAR SERIES: The Legal Histories beyond the State series is an initiativ
 e of the Lauterpacht Centre for International Law\, the Centre for History
  and Economics\, and the Cambridge Centre for Political Thought. It brings
  together historians\, political theorists and lawyers who are interested 
 in the social\, economic and political dimensions of law in the early mode
 rn and modern periods. We focus on the ways in which law and legal institu
 tions order and organize space and people. This encompasses both imperial 
 and international law\, and domestic public and private law in its manifol
 d influences on the nature and form of relations across borders. We are in
 terested in legal actors and institutions\, both national and supranationa
 l\; doctrines and concepts\, like jurisdiction\; and also diverse forms of
  legal border-crossing\, including the migration of people\, ideas and obj
 ects across time and place. Embracing new trends in legal and historical r
 esearch\, we pursue the exchange of legal ideas in formal and informal con
 texts\, and the creation\, appropriation and interpretation of law by non-
 traditional actors\, and in unexpected places.\n\nSome sessions will be de
 voted to discussion of new\, published work in the field\, and others to t
 he sharing of works-in-progress\, whether draft articles\, chapters or boo
 k prospectuses\, with a core group of scholars from a variety of disciplin
 es.\n\nAll are welcome.
