 | Cultures of Conflict Resolution in Early Modern Europe Subjects: Humanities; Law; History; Land Law; European History; Early Modern History 1500-1750; Religious History; Social & Cultural History; Legal History; Disputes, discord and reconciliation were fundamental parts of the fabric of communal living in early modern Europe. This edited volume presents essays on the cultural codes of conflict and its resolution in this period under three broad themes: peacemaking as practice; the nature of mediation and arbitration; and the role of criminal law in conflicts. Through an exploration of conflict and peacemaking, this volume provides innovative accounts of state formation, community and religion in the early modern period.
