Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Papacy Considered in Relation to International Law One of the most interesting problems of international law is that of the international position of the Papacy in our time. Eight years ago, the sovereign pontiffs found themselves deprived of the temporal power which they had exercised for centuries; and of the double character with which they had been invested, there now remains to them merely that of supreme chiefs of the Roman Catholic Church. As long as Rome was subject to them, they had, like all sovereigns, a juridical international personality; they enjoyed the rights conferred by this personality, and were subject to the obligations it implies. The events of 1870, the entry of the Italian troops into the Eternal City, the suppression of the Roman States, would appear necessarily to induce great changes, and to have modified the status of the Holy See. It might at first have been supposed that Europe would regulate the new condition of the Holy See. Projects of this kind were attributed to the empire of Germany. But no resolution was taken. Some states profited by the march of events to withdraw their representatives from Rome. Others maintained the status quo. After 1870, Pius IX. had his nuncios as he had before; after, as before, he saw powers accredit their ambassadors to his person.
