Handbook of International Law (Classic Reprint)Fb&c Limited, 2017年11月10日 - 650 頁 Excerpt from Handbook of International Law T hus, after nearly three hundred years from the founda tions laid by Grotius, the father of International Law, in 1625, there rises a worthy structure and in a single decade the advance made in centuries is surpassed. Where earlier writ ers referred to philosophical or religious sanctions to fortify their expression of hope that justice might prevail among the nations, the writers of the present day refer to the sanction of international conventions embodying the realization of these hopes. Hubner, a century and a half ago, suggested an international prize court; in 1907 a convention for establish ing such a court was drawn up, and is a typical example of the modern realization of the hopes of the early writers.
