I’m reviewing literature on state coercion, and I’m curious: what are the prevailing scholarly insights on the application of martial law in the Early Modern period?
My work touches on the growth of state power, and martial law seems a critical, yet under-theorized for this era, mechanism. I need a foundational overview of what historians have concluded about its use—was it a tool for order, a mask for tyranny, or something more nuanced? I'm looking for the key arguments in the field.
