About the Book

Now available as an ebook for the first time, this 2000 title in the Melland Schill Studies in International Law series is a survey of the history of law of neutrality from its mediaeval roots to the end of the twentieth century. The theme is the eternal clash between the rights of neutrals and belligerents - between the right of belligerents to defeat their enemies, and the right of neutrals to trade freely with all parties. Over the centuries, belligerent powers have devised various legal means of restricting neutrals from trading with their enemies, such as the law of blockade and contraband carriage. At the same time, neutral traders have done their best to evade and circumvent these restrictions. This book traces the evolution of state practice, together with the debates over the relevant doctrinal issues and the various attempts to reform and codify the law of neutrality.

Table of Contents:
Part 1 The foundations (1200-1800): Mediaeval roots - the just-war era, "rights" of neutrals, duties of neutrals, rights of belligerents, some practical problems; the age of parchment - a time of liberality; neutral assertiveness, trouble beckoning; in search of first principles - the three schools, the pendants in contention. Part 2 Innovation and consolidation (1750-1914): the invention of total war - belligerent innovations, neutrals fight back, economic warfare - with neutrals in the middle; consensus approached - doctrinal clashes, practical adjustments, towards the Declaration of Paris, neutrality and peace; consensus ruptured -holes in the Declaration of Paris, new tools for total war, exploiting sovereign rights, fearing for the future; fixing the rules - the Hague Conventions of 1907, the Declaration of London, a revolt in Britain. Part 3 New challenges (1914-2000): a great war and new departures - the Allies - the art of "long-distanced blockade", the Germans - the art of submarine warfare, post-mortem; the collective-security era - abolishing neutrality, codification "redux", the challenge of the "new neutrality", neutral solidarity, total war returns; modern times - the just-war outlook returns, neutrality survives - again, belligerents' rights in action, sovereign rights in action, neutrals resurgent; conclusion.
