The Society of Nations, Its Past, Present, and Possible Future (Classic Reprint)

Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from The Society of Nations, Its Past, Present, and Possible Future As Reader of International Law in the University of Bristol I have the privilege of lecturing there from time to time on such subjects connected with the Jus Gentium as seem to need elucidation at the moment. Happily I am not condemned to adapt myself to the requirements of an Examination Schedule, but am free to dwell on what fills my own mind and interests my audience, without regard to its value as a winner of marks. In the enjoyment of this freedom I gave six lectures in the Autumn of 1917 on The Society of Nations. Their substance is reproduced in the present volume, and to a large extent their wording also. But I have added a considerable amount of new matter, and have felt myself at liberty to introduce references to events that have taken place since the course was concluded. In fact, the growth of opinion on the great issues at stake in the present world-conflict has been so rapid, that in order to keep pace with it I have had to rewrite entirely and lengthen greatly the fifth and sixth lectures, which deal with the much-discussed proposal to create a League of Nations. What I said in the Council Chamber of the University of Bristol is in the book, but not exactly as I said it. The lectures have undergone some excision and much amplification. The relations subsisting between independent states, and the rules of conduct they should observe in their mutual intercourse, have been till lately deemed by the ordinary intelligent citizen matters far beyond his ken.
