ICRP Calendar
The notions of International Relations (IR) in capital letters and international relations (ir) in lowercase letters have two different meanings. The first refers to a scholarly discipline while the second one means a set of contemporary events with historical importance, which influences global-politics. In order to make observations, formulate theories and describe patterns within the framework of ‘IR’, one needs to fully comprehend specific events related to ‘ir’. It is why the Institute for Cultural Relations Policy (ICRP) believes that a timeline on which all the significant events of international relations are identified might be beneficial for students, scholars or professors who deal with International Relations. In the following document all the momentous wars, treaties, pacts and other happenings are enlisted with a monthly division, which had considerable impact on world-politics. January 1745 | Treaty of Warsaw The Treaty of Warsaw was a military pact among Great Britain, Austria, the Dutch Republic and Saxony. This 08 alliance supported Maria Theresa during the War of the Austrian Succession. It was also an anti-France alliance. 1792 | Treaty of Jassy The Treaty of Jassy was a peace agreement between the Russian Empire and the Ottoman Empire after the 09 Russo-Turkish War. According to this agreement Russia received important territories and became dominant power at the area of the Black Sea. 1732 | Treaty of Ahmet Pasha The Treaty of Ahmet Pasha was a peace agreement between the Ottoman Empire and the Safavid Persia. The 10 Ottomans and Persians fought between 1723 and 1730 both part was exhausted at the end of the war. -
The Body and Society in Eighteenth-Century France
DAZZLED, BLINDED, & NUMB: THE BODY AND SOCIETY IN EIGHTEENTH-CENTURY FRANCE Joseph D. Bryan A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History in the College of Arts and Sciences.

Bryan: Dazzled, Blinded, & Numb: The Body and Society in Eighteenth-Century France (Under the direction of Jay M. Smith) One of the defining features of eighteenth-century France was a pervasive anxiety over the possible collapse of the hierarchical and corporate social order. Although influenced by a variety of political and cultural crises, contemporaries often channeled blame for the tenuous state of society to the increase in commercial activity and the effects of luxury. While historians have recently used this anxiety as a key to explore innovative social thinking, they have often neglected two fundamental aspects of eighteenth-century culture. First, opponents of luxury did not simply put forward abstract moral critiques; their criticisms stemmed from the increasing availability of “superfluous” material goods, the noticeable expansion of social activities, such as public leisure and shopping, and new understandings of social interaction through practices of civility, taste, and refinement. The attention given to unprecedented forms of behavior is indicative of a larger point: the notion of society itself as a realm of human independence and interdependence was being invented.
