Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rules of War on LandThe idea of codifying the laws of war in their entirety originated with the late Dr. Francis Lieber, professor of political science and international law at Columbia University, New York. He was also the author of the code approved by President Lincoln, after having been examined with great care by General Halleck, himself a high authority upon the laws and usages of war, which was formulated in 1863 as General Orders, No. 100, for the government of the armies of the United States in the field. This order, as was said by M. De Martens at The Hague, has remained the basis of all subsequent efforts in the direction of the humanization of war.The annexe to The Hague convention, which embodies the Rules of war on Land is derived, in great part, from the codification of the Rules of War on Land which was prepared by the Institute of Inter national Law, and which was recommended for adoption by that body at its annual session at Oxford 011 September 9, 1890.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis The Effect of Civil War by : William H. Bailey

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Effect of Civil War: Upon the Rights of Persons and of Property It is presumed, that our Judiciary, Federal and State, will declare, that the recent conflict of arms originated in treason to the United States Government, and in rebellion against its authority; but for greater convenience - and without meaning thereby to be guilty of a petitio principii, - I shall determine it "The War," except where, from the propriety of the subject-matter, a different name may be ascribed. In the reduction of Fort Sumter, the parties engaged committed treason against the United States. But, suppose that no other act of treason had been committed; that the United States had, by force or otherwise, regained possession, and had captured or dispersed the few rebels engaged in the offensive operations, by which, the Fort was wrested from the control of the United States; would there have been a shadow of ground, for treating the affair as a War? I assume, that in such an event, the affair could not have been regarded in any other light than as an insurrection against the national authority involving only the participators, among whom might technically be classed, as principals - their aiders, advisors and abettors. The offenders would have been tried for treason by the Federal Courts, and the complete status in quo would have, at once, been re-established. Hence, can it be pretended by any one, that a single act of treason crushed at once by the strong arm of Federal power, could have justified Congress in treating a whole section as in a state of revolt? Can any one demonstrate that such a transaction would authorize the assumption of belligerent powers? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis War Rights on Land by : J. M. Spaight
Download or read book War Rights on Land written by J. M. Spaight and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-26 with total page 534 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from War Rights on Land Mr. Spaight, with whom I have had the pleasure of working in the Civil Service, and in the Civil Service Volunteer Rifles, has written to me from South Africa asking me to write a preface to his book. Friendship bids me consent, though I am more than doubtful whether my preface can do his book any good. For his sake I might be tempted to say that a great European Power is planning to invade our shores, that a successful landing in great force can be made in this country at any moment, that it is more than doubtful whether with our present military organisation we can successfully resist any such invasion, and, therefore, that it is every citizen's bounden duty to make himself acquainted with the existing code of war law on land, seeing that at no distant date he will probably be subjected to it. I do not, however, believe any of these things, and therefore I cannot use this special argument in commending Mr. Spaight's work. But his book, I believe, more than justifies itself apart from the possibility of the invasion of these islands. Until civilised societies have ceased to settle differences between nations by the barbarous appeal to force, war is a possibility, and it is the duty of citizens of a worldwide Empire to know its rules in order that they may observe them, whether they have to act as attackers, attacked or neutrals. There are also certain particular reasons which make a strict observance of these rules for the future a matter of great importance. Great Britain undertook at the Hague, in 1907, to issue instructions to her troops on the subject of war law, and to pay an indemnity for any breaches of war law committed by them.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Effects of War on Property: Being Studies in International Law and Policy The ancient conception of war was wider, and connoted a relation not only between States and hostile subjects, but between subjects and subjects as such. The principle had at any rate the merit of simplicity: all enemies could be slaughtered or enslaved and their property of every species seized wherever found. Physical impossibility was the only limit to a conqueror's greed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Origin of the War Term No Man's Land as Applied to the World War The subject matter of the following pages was drawn primarily from the author's experiences which began on an island in Lake Champlain near Westport, New York, called No Man's Island, and his subsequent discussions with a group of distinguished gentlemen, the majority of whom were foreign personages, and I might say, leaders of thought and philanthropy in Europe. Among these was the late Count Casimir de Monkowski, owner of the famous motor boat, the Ankle Deep, which won many speed championships on the St. Lawrence River and Lake George during the last decade.

Book Synopsis Law and Usage of War by : Sir Thomas Barclay

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Law and Usage of War: A Practical Handbook of the Law and Usage of Land and Naval Warfare and Prize This book was originally prepared as a treatise on the law of maritime war and prize. For the convenience of the reader at a time when nobody has leisure to wade through the historical or theoretical matter with which a systematic treatise is bound to deal, I have selected from my intended book the material needed for immediate reference. Moreover, the present war being even for this country a war on land as much as (if not more than) a naval war, and there being no quite recent treatise, except the official Manual on war on land, it was suggested that the book should deal with war generally, and as such would be welcomed by laymen as well as by those who have to deal with its legal aspects professionally. Furthermore, to make reference easier, I have broken up the different subjects into short and concise articles, and placed the whole in alphabetical order. The appendices are as complete as it has been possible to make them without swelling the book to unpractical dimensions. The ample references to them and a full index will enable the reader to find at once the exact text. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Losses, by property confiscated by adjudication, by planta 3 tions seized as abandoned and sold for taxes due the United States, for a nominal amount, and by the general and permanent deprec1a tion of real estate necessarily resulting from the abolition of slavery, and the measures of Congress which have eventuated in placing the taxing power of the Southern States into the hands of the non-prep erty - holders, are wholly beyond the reach of remedy by compensation, and no compensation is asked or expected therefor. Thus stands the situation as to the losses of the South, for which no compensation is asked, and for which none is, from the nature of things, required by law to be made.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from International Law, Having Particular Reference to the Laws of War on Land: A Course of Twelve Lectures Delivered to the Staff Class of the Army Service Schools In the study of international law, a division has sometimes been made between the natural law and the positive law; the former comprises the law as it ought to be, and the latter the law as it actually is, under present conditions; or I might say the former is the theoretical, altruistic law, and the latter the practical law under which the nations meet.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Political and Legal Remedies for War If the International Lawyer confines himself to his own proper task, and does not usurp the functions of the International legislator, of the moralist, or of the philanthropist, he is only concerned with War as a means, however violent and irregular, for the support of legal rights, or with the restrictions which civilization has introduced into the exercise of what are sometimes called the extreme rights of War. He is called upon only to register and expound the practical rules based upon the tacit or express consent of nations, and conformable to the dictates of abstract justice, so far as these can be ascertained; and he is not entitled to impair the simple treatment of a subject, engrossing enough in itself, by speculations on a remote future, or even by benevolently suggested reforms for the immediate present. Not, indeed, that the writers of text-books on International Law have generally exercised the self-restraint here commended. On the contrary, they have all but universally assumed the character of legislators as well as lawyers. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Civil War It is the attempt of this book to show that the Civil War was more than a succession of battles; that it was a struggle between two civilizations, each the logical result of its environment, and each endeavoring to work out the best American interest as it saw it. That of the two civilizations, one was reactionary, and Opposed to both the humani tarian sentiments of the nineteenth century and the economic profit of the race, is quite as true as the fact that honesty and intelligence were about evenly divided in the contest. The motive for secession, slavery, was indefensible in the long run, but men brought up with that institution believed in it, and were led by it to believe that the Con stitution had not created a nation, a position in which they were contradicted by the facts of industry and the law of the land. On both counts, Slavery and secession, American history must adjudge the South to have been mistaken. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis The Law of Private Property in War, With a Chapter on Conquest by : Norman Bentwich
Download or read book The Law of Private Property in War, With a Chapter on Conquest written by Norman Bentwich and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-11 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Law of Private Property in War, With a Chapter on Conquest: Being the Yorke Prize Essay for 1906 This book is based upon the Essay which won the Yorke Prize at Cambridge University in 1906; and the Author's chief excuse for adding to the already unwieldy mass of literature, which is being piled up about International Law, is that, by the regula tions which govern the Prize, publication has been thrust upon him. It is hoped, however, that the treatise may find some small justification beyond this compulsion. Undoubtedly the subject with which it deals is in the air. The events of the war between Russia and Japan and the approach of the meeting of the second Hague Conference, which it is hoped will form a code of the laws of war on sea, have combined to arouse public interest in the development of the International Law of War and Neutrality. Public opinion has greater influence in deter mining changes in this branch of jurisprudence than in any other, because these changes depend finally on the common consent of nations, which is but the expression of the united opinion of the people; and this in turn must be guided by the expositions of jurists. The aim of this book is to formulate, from a study of the chief authorities, the general principles which underlie modern usages, to point out where particular practices are obsolete and violate those principles, and to suggest the lines upon which reform may proceed. It may seem by its title to clash with an elaborate treatise which has recently been written on War and Commerce by Mr. Atherley-j ones, but its scope is at once narrower and wider. It avoids as far as possible lengthy historical disquisitions, and it does not seek to trace a path through the wilderness of single instances. It is more concerned with present usages and tendencies, and it covers the effects of war in all its relations to private property, as well of enemies as of neutrals, and both on land and on sea. It is clearly differentiated also in scope from the standard treatises on International Law, for it deals exclusively with that part of the law which affects private persons, and aims rather at interesting the student than satisfying the lawyer.
