Published online by Cambridge University Press: 21 May 2009
Extract
Grotius may be considered as the founder of the modern theory of international law and of the modern humanist theory of natural law. His famous work De hire belli ac pads libri tres, first published in 1625, combined an elaboration of his contributions, which formed the foundation to both these theories.
