Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Notes on the Foreign Policy of the United States Suggested by the War With Spain Before the declaration of war against Spain closed debate in this country as to the existence of a just cause it was asserted that International Law did not admit a right of intervention, under the circumstances, and it will be conceded that there is no rule of law to which an intervener may in any case appeal in justification. Nor is such a rule desirable, for the temptation to profit by the domestic troubles of a neighbor should not be encouraged by adopting a rule so likely to be abused. But while the law of nations consecrates the normal right of each State to independence with all that independence implies, it is conceivable that a State may so misconduct its internal affairs as to provoke an intolerable situation, and lay itself open to intervention. Upon consideration it may be said that intervention is not unrighteous merely because it lacks formal recognition. Nor would it be righteous because of such recognition. The propriety of the act is to be determined in each case by the facts. If, then, a State shall intervene in the internal affairs of another, it does not necessarily commit a wrong, but, because independence is the essence of nationality, it is heavily burdened with the proof that it vindicates a right.
