Summary

"International Law: A Treatise. Volume 2 (of 2)" by L. Oppenheim examines the rules governing nations at war and those that remain neutral. It provides a detailed look at how countries interact, focusing on the legal and political causes of conflict, and proposes ways to solve disagreements. The book begins by explaining different ways countries can settle arguments peacefully, like talking things out or asking for help from a neutral party, before things escalate to actions like blockades or getting involved in another country's affairs. Oppenheim highlights the importance of understanding the difference between legal and political disagreements and promotes the use of non-violent methods to keep peace between nations.
