Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Two Lectures on the Present American War The present war in America may be regarded from two points of view - one external, the other internal. As foreigners, we may inquire how it affects, or may affect hereafter, the rights and obligations - I must not here add, the interests - of our own and other foreign countries, and their established relations with the United States. This is the point of view proper to an English or French statesman; this inquiry, up to a certain point, it has already been the duty of the chief European governments to make; and it will be necessary for them to pursue it further, unless the course of events should take a different turn. So great and massive a structure as the American Commonwealth, though seated on a remote continent, and separated from ours by its traditional policy of isolation as well as by an immense ocean, cannot fall asunder without sending a wave to break upon the shores of Europe, nor without raising a cloud of questions troublesome enough to exact from those who have to deal with them much circumspection and care. On the other hand, we may in imagination place ourselves within that circle of fire which is consuming the gains of a most industrious, and the splendid hopes of a most restless and ambitious people. In America itself, and among Americans, the revolution, should it run its course, will give rise to some questions strictly international, and to others of a class commonly handled by international jurists, though more properly belonging to public or constitutional law.
