Professor Oona Hathaway, Gerard C. and Bernice Latrobe Smith Professor of Law and Professor of Political Science, has been named a Berlin Prize recipient for the 2025–26 academic year.
Hathaway will use the fellowship to write her book, “War Unbound,” which examines how a fundamental shift in the nature of war has strained international humanitarian law. Her project examines how war has shifted from conflicts between states to more frequent confrontations between states and nonstate actors.
