Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from International Law, Some Problems of the War: A Lecture Delivered Before the University of Oxford in the Hall of All Souls College on October 30, 1915 There was no Chair of International Law at the time of the Napoleonic Wars or at that of the Crimea, nor can I discover that any lectures were then delivered on the Law of Nations. The mild hostilities of the Boer War, the only occasion on which this country has been a belligerent since the Chair was instituted, raised no questions at all comparable with those that face us to-day. In the present war there are topics to hand in plenty, anxious topics that all demand consideration. An attempt will be made to discuss the greater part of them, more or less in detail, in the course of lectures which it is proposed to deliver during the current year. This afternoon there is no time to do more than to submit to you some observations on particular points of importance. On some of these points it is premature as yet to pronounce a final opinion, and on them my purpose will be attained if I succeed in explaining the main considerations which affect them and in assisting you to form a judgment upon them when the time for judgment comes. Let us turn first to the relations between belligerents neutrals. Here the group of questions that have and aroused the most controversy are those as to the restrictions which a belligerent is entitled to have imposed or to himself impose on trade between neutrals and his enemies. For instance, the right of a belligerent to insist on the prohibition by neutral States of trade in munitions of war with his enemies, or of the raising of a loan in the neutral market by his enemy; the right of a belligerent to stop and seize neutral cargoes destined for the enemy while on the high seas; these are topics of the highest importance, and, with your leave, I will discuss them in the order in which they have been stated.
