Freedom and border-making in the early modern world

Research output: Contribution to journalMeeting Abstract

Abstract

The interdisciplinary conference Freedom and Border-Making in the Early Modern World was the result of a collaboration between the Bonn Center for Dependency and Slavery Studies and the British Academy funded project “Living on the Edge: Experiences and Responses to Europe’s Changing Borderlands” at the University of Manchester. Considering the multifaceted nature of border-making processes, this workshop proposed to consider early modern borders through critical engagement with the international relations theory of “securitization”. The primary objective was to apply this concept to early modern history to explore the concept and its repercussions.
