Although normative rules for the regulation of inter-power relationships have existed for centuries, the term “international law” and the meanings we attach to it today differs strongly from earlier notions of international law that we can find throughout world history. In Episode 3 of Voices of JHIL, we talk to Dominik Steiger about Heinhard Steiger’s, article “From the International Law of Christianity to the International Law of the World Citizen,” published in JHIL 3(2) (2000), 180-193. What are turning points in the history of international law and how can we periodize the history of international law despite the complex terminological issues we may face? Join us in this thrilling conversation to find out more!
