Description

On The Law Of War And Peace is a seminal work on international law written by the Dutch scholar Hugo Grotius. First published in 1625, the book is considered one of the most important texts in the field of international law and has had a significant impact on the development of modern international legal principles.The book is divided into three parts, each of which explores a different aspect of international law. The first part examines the nature of war and the circumstances under which it is justified. Grotius argues that war is only permissible in self-defense or in response to an unjust attack, and that it must be conducted in a way that minimizes harm to civilians and non-combatants.The second part of the book deals with the rights and obligations of states in times of peace. Grotius argues that states have a duty to respect the sovereignty and territorial integrity of other states, and that they must refrain from interfering in the internal affairs of other nations.The third and final part of the book focuses on the role of international law in resolving disputes between nations. Grotius argues that international law should be based on principles of justice and equity, and that it should be enforced by a system of international courts and tribunals.Overall, On The Law Of War And Peace is a groundbreaking work that has had a profound impact on the development of modern international law. It remains a key text for scholars and practitioners in the field, and its ideas continue to shape the way we think about the rights and responsibilities of nations in the modern world.But as in those early times, when men were few, and aggressions rare, there was less occasion for examples, God restrained by an express commandment the impulse of nature which appeared lawful, he forbad any one to kill the murderer, at the same time prohibiting all intercourse with him, even so far as not to touch him.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
