"The universal 'rights of man' and the international 'system of states' often appear
as the crowning achievements of the Western political imagination for modern international
relations. The quelling of religious wars across Europe under a stronger policy of
toleration and the rise of territorial sovereignty set the tone for a form of international
relations breaking free from Latin Christendom and the grip of the papacy. Yet longstanding
scholarly attention on political citizenship and national sovereignty within Reformation
Europe after the iconic 1648 Peace of Westphalia often disregards the ideological
underside of universal natural rights claims in extra-European contexts of imperial
conquest and colonial settlement. European assertions of a natural right to punish
and subjugate populations deemed unfit to govern themselves and an exclusive right
to private property in foreign lands, bolstered by biblical and theological justifications,
provided legal armor to early modern and modern expansion in the Americas, Africa,
and Asia"
