Variety of Legal Spaces in Ruthenian Lands of Poland-Lithuania during Medieval and Early Modern Times

13. Oktober 2023

Organiser: Käte Hamburger Kolleg "Einheit und Vielfalt im Recht" (EViR); Ukrainian Catholic University Lviv 

Date: 21.11.2023 - 22.11.2023
Place: Münster, Germany

The international workshop focusses on legal pluralism in Poland-Lithuania during the Middle Ages and the early modern period.

Recent research has shown that forms of legal plurality can be observed at all times and in all places. But even as an overarching phenomenon, legal plurality makes itself felt in very different forms and facets. It is therefore worthwhile to ask about the spatiotemporal settings and, in the course of this, about the factors for the emergence of certain forms of legal plurality, but also of legal unification. The aim of the conference is to examine this using the example of Poland-Lithuania during the Middle Ages and the early modern period.

Organisation: Prof. Dr. Tetiana Hoshko, Dr. Olga Kozubska, Prof. Dr. Ulrike Ludwig
