In this episode of the CEU Review of Books Podcast Series we sat down with Natasha Wheatley to talk about her book, The Life and Death of States: Central Europe and the Transformation of Modern Sovereignty (Princeton University Press, 2023).

Natasha is an Assistant Professor of History at Princeton University, with a focus on modern European and intellectual history and an interest in legal history, Central Europe and the history of international law.

The Life and Death of States offers an exploration of the relationship between sovereignty and time and reveals how the Habsburg Empire became a laboratory of legal theories that also shaped our contemporary world order.
