"Why Dueling was Legal in Uruguay from 1920 to 1992" with Dr. David Parker
Drawing on research from his 2022 book, The Pen, the Sword, and the Law: Dueling and Democracy in Uruguay (Montreal: McGill-Queen’s University Press), Dr. Parker discusses how Uruguay’s unique decision to legalize the duel reflected, paradoxically, the desire to strengthen the rule of law.
