Ukraine, Nuclear Weapons, And The Future Of International Law, Nicholas Rostow
Ukraine, Nuclear Weapons, And The Future Of International Law, Nicholas Rostow
Naval War College Review
Russian president Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine has confronted the international community with fateful questions: whether the minimum world public order constructed after World War II is to survive, whether nuclear powers are free to commit aggression, and whether any state that is not an ally of a nuclear power is fair game for attack.
Current International Law Problems, George L. Russell
Current International Law Problems, George L. Russell
Naval War College Review
International Law is probably most unsatisfactory to those of us who have a leaning towards such exact subjects as mathematics. For that matter, all law is an inexact subject. International Law is particularly baffling to those who must rely on a written set of rules and regulations.
Aspects Of International Law Affecting The Naval Commander, Geoffrey E. Carlisle
Aspects Of International Law Affecting The Naval Commander, Geoffrey E. Carlisle
Naval War College Review
The subject assigned for this lecture "The Aspects of International Law affecting the Naval Commander" is one particularly cogent to the members of this audience. Particularly important because each of you, during periods of foreign duty, may expect to encounter problems of International Law and encounter them, not in a detached academic sort of a way, but directly-face to face-as it were.
The Geneva Conventions Of 1949, Richard R. Baxter
The Geneva Conventions Of 1949, Richard R. Baxter
Naval War College Review
Stated in other terms, the law seeks to limit the measures of war to those which are necessary and to curb those activities which produce suffering out of all proportion to the military advantage to be gained.
Soviet Interpretation And Application Of International Law, Oliver J. Lissitzyn
Soviet Interpretation And Application Of International Law, Oliver J. Lissitzyn
Naval War College Review
Recent Soviet writings leave little doubt that the advancement of Communism still remains the supreme criterion of morality in Soviet ideology. Hatred of the class enemy—of capitalists as a class—continues to be regarded as one of the components of Soviet morality. Law is regarded by the Communists as an instrument by which the ruling class imposes its will on the community.
Jurisdiction, Philip C. Jessup
Jurisdiction, Philip C. Jessup
Naval War College Review
I think in approaching the subject of Jurisdiction it is pertinent to note that anyone exercising authority of the United States Government is from time to time necessarily concerned with problems of jurisdiction.
The Position Of Individuals In International Law, Herbert W. Briggs
The Position Of Individuals In International Law, Herbert W. Briggs
Naval War College Review
In the PELEUS War Crimes Trial, the British judge advocate characterized 'customary international law' as: "nothing but a body of rules and customs, expressing the common sense of civilized nations." I would like to make my first parenthetical remark at this point by saying that I have been tremendously impressed by the common sense approach of the draft Law Instructions for Naval Warfare.
Soviet Interpretation And Application Of International Law, John N. Hazard
Soviet Interpretation And Application Of International Law, John N. Hazard
Naval War College Review
Soviet lawyers did not begin thinking about International law until the year 1922. The Minister of Justice in that year gave a speech to all of the lawyers in the capital at Moscow, outlining the tasks of Soviet legal research, and he put first among those tasks the study of International Law.
Introduction To International Law, Leo Gross
Introduction To International Law, Leo Gross
Naval War College Review
At the outset, I shall talk a little bit about what we might call the "cultural setting" of international law, which I think is sometimes overlooked nowadays. In doing so, I will try to avoid extremes. I will not be overoptimistic and I will not be overpessimistic.

Introduction To International Law, R. R. Baxter
Introduction To International Law, R. R. Baxter
Naval War College Review
It is quite clear that man has not been able to legislate war and aggression into defeat or even into retreat, although the institutions which the international community has developed exercise some restraints on the use of force.
Special Aspects Of Jurisdiction At Sea, Wilfred A. Hearn
Special Aspects Of Jurisdiction At Sea, Wilfred A. Hearn
Naval War College Review
My subject this morning is rather timely, and one which should be of interest to you not only because of its significance in the field of International law but because of its importance to you in your future role of planning and executing naval operations at sea. Specifically, I am going to discuss the law of the sea, with particular emphasis upon those principles affecting the freedom of the seas.
Soviet Interpretation Of International Law, Oliver J. Lissitzyn
Soviet Interpretation Of International Law, Oliver J. Lissitzyn
Naval War College Review
Does it do any good at all to talk about international law when it comes to dealing with the Soviet Union and its allies? I am sure that this question must have occurred to most of us from time to time. Can we expect the Soviets to pay heed to any rules of international law, or to carry out any obligations that they assume?

Naval War College Review
In the first part of our time this morning, then, I should like to take you rapidly through the development of Soviet international law in its historical setting, describe some salient features of contemporary Soviet international law, dwell at some length upon the so-called principles of peaceful coexistence, and hazard some speculation on the future.

New Trends In International Law: The Challeges Of The Ecological Age, Richard A. Falk
New Trends In International Law: The Challeges Of The Ecological Age, Richard A. Falk
Naval War College Review
The "Torrey Canyon" incident heralded the beginning of an ecological age in which mankind's major concern will be preserving the planet's habitability rather than prevailing in international disputes. The problems of war, population growth, pollution, and the exhaustion of our limited supplies of ores and fossil fuels must be dealt with effectively by the end of the century.
What Is Innocent Passage?, Peter B. Walker
What Is Innocent Passage?, Peter B. Walker
Naval War College Review
Although international law text writers, as well as the delegates to the conferences for the codification of international law, are in general agreement that foreign ships may pass freely through the territorial waters of a state, unanimity is lacking as to the specific rules which apply.
New Issues And New Interest In The Law Of The Sea, Joseph B. Mcdevitt

International Law And The Use Of Force, Shabtai Rosenne
International Law And The Use Of Force, Shabtai Rosenne
Naval War College Review
If international law is conceived as a standard-setting regulatory pattern for the normal conduct of states towards one another, the question of international law and the use of force—of the relationship between law in force—belongs not to its static parts, but rather to a more dynamic and, truth to tell, less clearly regulated area.
U.S. Navy Regulations, International Law, And The Organization Of American States, Theodore K. Woods Jr.
U.S. Navy Regulations, International Law, And The Organization Of American States, Theodore K. Woods Jr.
Naval War College Review
In the 19th century, international law recognized the right of a nation to use force to protect the lives and property af its nationals. In recent years the advent of regional and international organizations with their ancillary treaties has made the right to intervene to preserve property extremely tenuous.
Forcible Self-Help Under International Law, Richard B. Lillich
Forcible Self-Help Under International Law, Richard B. Lillich
Naval War College Review
The wording of articles 2(4) and 51 of the United Nations Charter has led many to suggest that the Charter prohibits any type of forcible self-help except self-defense.
