Together with security and history experts around the globe, Prof Dr. de Graaf will present her book and chair a discussion on security cultures in the 19th century. The book tells the story of European interstate security cooperation by key historical figures such as Metternich, Castlereagh, Wellington and Alexander I in an attempt to restore order after Napoleon’s defeat in 1815. In doing so, Prof. Dr. de Graaf shines a new light on the project of European integration and it’s relation to international norms and the collective fight against terror.
The book presentations includes a round table discussion, introduced by CUP-editor Michael Watson, and with professors Sir Christopher Clark (University of Cambridge), Glenda Sluga (University of Sydney), Brian Vick (Emory University) and students from the Master International Relations in Historical Perspective from Utrecht University.
