- ‘A Laboratory for the State of Exception. Protective Custody in Prussia and Bavaria…, 1914-1923’ examines continuities in the use of protective custody orders (detention without trial) as an instrument of the state of exception, focusing on Germany’s two largest states. It treats protective custody not only as a judicial construct, but as a new, experimental space for executive action against a range of imagined ‘internal enemies’, some social, some political. It argues that in both states 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.
