Traités de paix et normes juridico-religieuses en Méditerranée à la fin du Moyen Âge. Entre pluralisme normatif et hiérarchie des normes
Résumé
The norms regulating relations between Christians and Muslims
produced in the Middle Ages by the popes or the fuqahâ’ were based on the
principle of an absolute differentiation between believers and unbelievers. This
led them to consider war as the natural state of these relations, to restrict or even
prohibit contacts between the Christian and Muslim worlds and to interpret
the relations with the infidel in terms of a hierarchy between believers and
unbelievers. However, bilateral peace treaties never referred to these principles
and only distinguished between the subjects or citizens of a state at peace,
without taking into consideration confessional differences. This allows them to
free themselves, at least in part, from the norms produced by religious circles, in
favor of negotiations guided by purely political and economic motives
