As part of the HSU History Department’s annual Undergraduate History Conference, keynote speaker Dr. Mostafa Minawi will discuss “International Law and Colonialism in Africa at the Turn of the 20th Century: The Ottoman Case” in Founders Hall, Room 232. This talk reflects on the implications of “juridical colonialism”–the legalistic justification of European colonization of non-European lands—on the Ottoman Empire’s own imperial project. Tracing the involvement of the Ottoman Empire in multi-lateral agreements which affirmed or assumed Ottoman sovereignty, Minawi will show how European Powers increasingly marginalized Ottoman legal rights through extra-legal methods.
