Landfrieden - epochenübergreifend. : Neue Perspektiven der Landfriedensforschung auf Verfassung, Recht, Konflikt.

»Public Peace - Across Epochs«This volume is the first to look at public peace in the form of a dialogue between medieval and early modern historical research, condensing it to a common thematic core. Nine chapters analyse how kings, princes, nobility and towns - as individuals or as corporate actors - made use of the public peace for their own political goals. In this way, approaches of constitutional, political and legal history are combined with historical security and conflict studies.
