Join an enlightening session at the next I-HILT invited lecture! We are thrilled to host Dr. Anne-Charlotte Martineau, who will deliver a lecture on "Legal-Theological Justifications of the Slave Trade: From Francisco de Vitoria to Luis de Molina (16th Century)".

She will offer a thorough exploration of the complex interplay between law and theology that shaped the slave trade, linking it to the longstanding and evolving concept of property. Following the presentation, our dear colleague Dr. Hanna Lukkari will enrich the discussion with her philosophical insights, promising to deepen our understanding and engage the audience further. There will be ample time for a comprehensive Q&A session. The moderator will be Dr Zülâl Muslu. Read an abstract to Dr. Martineau's contribution
