Daniel R. Quiroga-Villamarín, PostDoc am Institut, erhält für “Architects of the Better World’: Democracy, Law, and the Construction of International Order (1919-1998)” den Best Dissertation Award 2025 der European International Studies Association (EISA). Die Arbeit entstand am Geneva Graduate Institute. Das Preiskomitee schreibt als Begründung: “This thesis offers one of the most remarkable studies on the attempt to democratize international law. It runs through various instances and sites, including the Hague Peace Conference (1889), the Versailles settlement (1919), all the way till the end of the Cold War (1998), to fundamentally rethink the evolution of the architecture of international cooperation. It is a genuine model of what an astute articulation of law, international history, and political theory can bring to the study of international relations, across time and places.”
