Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Worlds Highway Some Notes on America´s Relation to Sea: Power and Non-Military Sanctions, for the Law of Nations These notes have certainly no pretension of treating exhaustively the questions with which they deal; still less of being a lawyer´s discussion of details of international law: prize, blockade, contraband, search. However important those things may be, this country´s final policy will be, or should be, settled by considerations that go rather beyond them. What I have attempted, therefore, in the selection and arrangement of these notes, is to bring into relief the more important aspects of the general principles that underlie international polity in so far as it affects Americans. The book in fact may be regarded as an attempt to furnish an introduction to the study of American foreign policy; a contribution to national preparedness in that respect. A country can as little dispense with preparedness in policy as in arms. The idea that the former can be neglected if only the latter are efficient, that we can attain security by military force alone, is one of those errors against which Bismarck warned his countrymen - vainly - thirty years ago.
