06 1814 – 1914 – 1989: Paradigmenwechsel in Völkerrecht und Politik
Wiener Kongress – Erster Weltkrieg – Fall der Berliner Mauer. Diese Ereignisse prägten das politische und historische Bild des Westens und ermöglichten es Völkerrechtlern, das internationale Recht zeitlich einzuordnen und zu kategorisieren. Sie sahen eine fortlaufende Geschichte des Völkerrechts vor – unterteilt in Epochen, durch verschiedene Paradigmen strukturiert und durch Fortschritt geprägt, der glücklicherweise im internationalen Recht des 20. Jahrhunderts resultierte. Auf Grundlage der Annahme, dass die Periodisierung nicht naturgegeben, sondern ein intellektuelles Konstrukt ist, soll in diesem Seminar die Aktualität dieser Periodisierung kritisch diskutiert werden. Welche Auswirkungen hatte sie auf das Völkerrecht? Welche anderen Geschichten des Völkerrechts gibt es noch zu erzählen?
