On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
‘The Nomos of the Earth’ is a later work by Schmitt and develops key concepts on geopolitics and international law. Through an idiosyncratic understanding of the definition of nomos, Schmitt constructs a genealogy of public international law and state development. We will examine Schmitt’s theory of state development through the tripartite constitution of nomos as appropriation, distribution, and production. In addition, the seminar will also explore Schmitt’s account of the development of public international law from Ancient Egypt to the Treaty of Versailles, his imperialist notions of grossraum, and his concept of the katechon.
