Divided into two parts, the work begins with a general history of international relations since the Middle Ages. Other chapters examine earlier methods of international arbitration, the Hague Peace Conferences of 1899 and 1907 and preliminary developments in the early 1900s that would later influence the league's character. Additional topics include the Congress of Vienna and the Alabama case. The second part examines the establishment of the league, then proceeds to an article-by-article commentary of its charter (or Covenant). Pollock also includes an appendix containing the texts of source materials and early drafts of the charter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSir Frederick Pollock [1845-1937] was one of the greatest British judges and legal scholars of his day. His treatises on contracts, jurisprudence and other subjects did much to clarify and systematize English law. Several of these were standard texts that went through several editions. He is also remembered for his collaboration with F.W. Maitland on \u003cem\u003eThe History of English Law Before the Time of Edward I\u003c\/em\u003e and his correspondence with Oliver Wendell Holmes, which was published posthumously as \u003cem\u003eThe Holmes-Pollock Letters\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003exv, 251 pp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 270\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.75 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 14, 2020\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50737229857074,"sku":"9781584772477","price":57.33,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0961\/1608\/0946\/files\/RCifTUMg129781584772477.webp?v=1766022932","url":"https:\/\/deskinlawfirm.com\/products\/the-league-of-nations-1920-hardcover","provider":"DLF Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
