To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Belgium is neutral. And yet men think that it can give birth to a healthy system of international law. I will ask you to remember this when you are confronted with the voluminous literature which Belgian scholars have produced on this subject. Again, there is one country which believes itself in a position to attack when it will, and which is therefore a home of barbarism in all matters of international law. Thanks to England, marine international law is still, in time of war, nothing better th...an a system of privileged piracy. We see, therefore, that as international law rests wholly on reciprocity, it is vain to ask nations to listen to empty commonplaces about humanity. Theory must here be nailed down to practice; real reci- procity and a real balance of power are inseparable. If we would further define the sphere of inter- national law, we must bear well in mind that it must never trespass on the existence of the State. 1 66 Treitschke Demands which drive a State towards suicide are necessarily unreasonable; each State must retain its internal sovereignty amid the general commu- nity of States ; the preservation of that sovereignty is its highest duty even in its dealings with its neighbours.
