Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Neutral Merchant: In Relation to the Law of Contraband of War and Blockade Under the Order in Council of 11th March 1915 These articles appeared this year in the April, August, and September numbers of The Nineteenth Century and After, and I have to thank the Editor for allowing me to reprint them so soon after publication. They are a justification of the much-attacked Order in Council of 11th March, 1915. In reply to the German submarine menace the British Government resorted, by way of Reprisals, to a method of strangling the enemy´s commerce which, on the one hand, was wider in its scope than any list of contraband, and, on the other, was free from the ´legal niceties´ which surround a declaration of blockade. Neutral merchants declared that it hit them hard, and the Government of the United States protested that it exceeded the limits which international law has placed to the right of a belligerent to interfere with neutral trade. The British Government replied justifying its action, and there, one would imagine, the matter should have rested for arbitration after the War.
