Abstract: Judicial independence in Austria was achieved step-by-step. The development did not proceed in the sense of a straightforward, continuous “progress”, but was characterized by several setbacks. And even today, judicial independence has to be fought for anew every day. The presentation will give an overview of two centuries of legal development and highlight current challenges.

The ongoing I-HILT online e-lecture series is hosting an event with Professor Samuel Moyn.

Samuel Moyn: Reflections on the Humanization of War – 16.00 (Brussels time)

The ongoing I-HILT online e-lecture series at Tilburg Law School is excited to have Professor Samuel Moyn (Yale Law School) present in the latest instalment to discuss his most recent book Humane: How the United States Abandoned Peace and Reinvented War. ‘The rise of American Empire has coincided with appeals for a more humane war. But what if efforts to make war more ethical—to ban torture and limit civilian casualties—have only shored up the military enterprise and made it sturdier?’

Sergio Dellavalle - Paradigms of Social Order: From Holism to Pluralism and Beyond (With Guest Speakers Hans Lindahl and Ingo Venzke)

SUMMARY

In the latest I-HILT online e-lecture series, Professor Sergio Dellavalle (University of Turin) will be discussing his most recent book 'Paradigms of Social Order'. This publication focuses on the concept of 'order', surveying the many theories that have been developed to explain what is social order. Through such analysis the book then challenges well-established assumptions about how best to organise a just and effective society, providing the opportunity to question the suitability of a cosmopolitan society in dealing with modern global challenges. Also joining this event as guest speakers are Professor Hans Lindahl (Tilburg University) and Professor Ingo Venzke (University of Amsterdam). 

If you are interested please contact Deepak Mawar (d.r.mawar[at]tilburguniversity.edu) with the email title ‘I-HILT E-Lecture Registration’ and he will provide you with the Zoom link for the e-lecture.

On the lecture: 

Discover the drastically different health and welfare services available to the poor in Victorian society. How did the sick alert local poor law medical officers of their needs, and what services were they entitled to? Did the poor and their families have a right to medical care, and what happened when their expectations of such rights were not reached? Join Paul Carter as he delves into Victorian welfares services, more specifically the health service of the time, and provides a fascinating insight into the medical care available to the poor.
