To the Uttermost Parts of the Earth shows the vital role played by
legal imagination in the formation of the international order
during 1300-1870. It discusses how European statehood arose during
early modernity as a locally specific combination of ideas about
sovereign power and property rights, and how those ideas expanded
to structure the formation of European empires and consolidate
modern international relations. By connecting the development of
legal thinking with the history of political thought and by showing
the gradual rise of economic analysis into predominance, the author
argues that legal ideas from different European legal systems -
Spanish, French, English and German - have played a prominent role
in the history of global power. This history has emerged in
imaginative ways to combine public and private power, sovereignty
and property. The book will appeal to readers crossing conventional
limits between international law, international relations, history
of political thought, jurisprudence and legal history.
