It does so by recalling the pre-history to that peace that stretches as far back as US President Woodrow Wilson’s Fourteen Points of January 1918, for the German Government accepted these Fourteen Points as well as subsequent pronouncements of President Wilson as the basis for the peace that ended the Great War. Through a close engagement with diplomatic correspondence from October and November 1918, the article considers how impressions came to form that a ‘contract’ had been made with the enemy (John Maynard Keynes) by the time of the Armistice of Compiègne of November 1918—an apparent ‘charter for our future activity’ (Harold Nicolson) or a localized lex pacificatoria for its time. The article explores the amenability of each of the Fourteen Points to international normativity and, in its final section, it provides a broader account of how this set of positions shaped Germany’s official response to the draft treaty (‘Observations of the German Delegation on the Conditions of Peace’) that was released in May 1919.","PeriodicalId":43782,"journal":{"name":"London Review of International Law","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2020-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44702295","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Reading everyone’s contributions in this moment makes me at once nostalgic, for a pre-pandemic time that is tempting to romanticise as ‘carefree’, and grateful. It takes only a fraction of a second to remember we were always already in crisis even if it had a different intensity. Still, I am grateful to be part of such an incredible community of scholars, and humans, whose work and friendship (dare I say comradeship) has sustained me over the past years and, in some cases, the past decade or more. It is that connection, that comradeship, and that willingness and ability to engage, critically if must be, with each other’s work, lives and projects that will carry us through beyond the present crisis, and to a world which in some (many) areas, needs to be rebuilt from the ground up. I am intensely grateful for the time, energy and care given to my book by the five scholars in this symposium— Susan Marks, Dan Danielsen, Emily Jones, Maı̈a Pal, Honor Brabazon—and I know that even though we may disagree on certain issues (such as the utility of law) it is clear to me that we are ultimately working on a common project. Research and writing, and academic work more generally, is a collective effort and we complement each other’s work, generate synergies and push each other to go beyond. For example, I am happy to accept Pal’s challenge to my generalising, and at times flattening, description of the early modern state form. I look forward to her own book on this topic (Jurisdictional Accumulation: An Early Modern History of Law, Empires, and Capital), due to be published soon. I am likewise looking forward to Jones’ Posthuman International Law,","PeriodicalId":43782,"journal":{"name":"London Review of International Law","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2020-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1093/lril/lraa014","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43340784","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the chromatic spectrum of the treaty's reality, both in its own time but also in its enduring legacy, highlights the peace project's formidable complexity. Just as the haze of the summer of 1914 is so compellingly captured in the tragic remembrances of pre-war tennis matches in Vera Brittain's Testament of Youth, so the vision of 1919 bathes in seasonal shimmers and phosphorescent flashbacks that cannot help but be the product of emotion rather than cool dissection. However, the peace process born of the Great War remains an exercise in revelation, as public international lawyers continue to interact with it well into the 21st century. Yet, there is (as perhaps there has always been) a distinct unsettling at how the peace settlement’s suffocating old-world tropes jostle with the first pangs of a new, scarcely recognisable, international society in the livery of the League of Nations. Like Mrs Dalloway, our various disorientating encounters with these events—these past, these living events—force us to reckon with the roles of time, faith and doubt in our discipline.","PeriodicalId":43782,"journal":{"name":"London Review of International Law","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2020-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1093/lril/lraa015","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48126093","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Designing Versailles: landscapes and the perspectival peace 设计凡尔赛：风景与透视的和平

Given the treaty's enduring significance as a site for testing the possibilities of international law, particular attention is given to the troubling negotiating arrangements concerning the Middle East. In acknowledgement of the backdrop's grandeur and the Council of Four's cartographic approach, the design discipline of landscape architecture is employed for estimating how far self-determination was (or was not) realised. For Louis XIV, Versailles's landscaping represented Culture's triumph over Nature. Equally, for the 1919 peacemakers the treaty symbolised law's triumphant return after the unequalled annihilation evident on the Western Front and Dardanelles beaches. Both grand projects suggested Cartesian notions. More compellingly, both Louis XIV and the Four (and in particular Clemenceau and Lloyd George) fetishized an avaricious hegemonic order. As well as embracing aesthetic, pictorial meanings in the visual arts, tellingly, 'landscape' also concerns 'limited section[s], administrative area[s], territory'. Although the treaty-artefact was a matter of fact, it was also a historically situated aesthetics : framed and presented in particular ways, in a particular interior, to situate the gaze of specific viewers and imply certain political associations. Like many design ideals devised to dazzle passive onlookers, attractions were firmly located in the creators' eyes. The construction of Versailles’s artistically stunning landscape had emphasised an all-authoritative French territorial state. In 1919 Versailles was also a cultural practice and its landscape had value '…as a process by which social and subjective identities' were formed. In June 1919, just as in the curve of the seventeenth into the eighteenth century, power's material realisation was confirmed at Versailles.","PeriodicalId":43782,"journal":{"name":"London Review of International Law","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2020-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46726723","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
