OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, 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.
