Emergency and Empire in the Age of Revolutions

Lisa Ford
George Washington University


May 22 (Thu) 11:00am-1pm
Building 14, Room 204
Seoul National University

Hosted by the Department of History, Seoul National University

Lisa Ford is Professor of Modern British Imperial History at George Washington University. She is the prize-winning author and co-author of several books: Inquiring into Empire (Cambridge, 2025), The King’s Peace (Harvard, 2021), Rage for Order (Havard, 2016) and Settler Sovereignty (Harvard, 2010).

In this paper, Professor Ford will discuss the varied uses of martial law in Britain’s empire from the1770s. To understand its role in British Imperial Governance, she will argue that we need to look both at the details and contestations of its use to quell rebellions in new and old colonies as well as its utility in projecting order over uncertain subjects and ungovernable places on the fringes of empire.
