- English abstract
- This article examines continuities in the use of protective custody as an instrument of the state of exception in Germany between 1914 and 1923, focusing on Prussia and Bavaria. It treats protective custody as a new, experimental space for executive action against a range of imagined “internal enemies”. The article argues that differences between the formal legal frameworks surrounding protective custody in Prussia and Bavaria had little impact on its practical use or political intent. Protective custody produced a set of mentalities that extended well beyond the war itself, helping to underpin the violent foundations of Weimar’s early years.
