1 Professor Goldie, among others, has reviewed this instruction in International Law at the War Colleges, 66 AJIL 24 (1972). Various meetings, focusing particularly on teaching of the law of war, have afforded opportunities for instructors to exchange views. These have included a workshop on the law of war at the April 1974 meeting of the American Society of International Law and a Conference on the teaching of the law of war at the National War College, Dec. 16-17, 1974.
