Political Reasons Making Undesirable an International Agreement as to Freedom of the Seas

In: American journal of international law: AJIL, Band 23, Heft 4, S. 739-744

Abstract

The April number of the Journal has an editorial note by Professor J. W. Garner in which he reviews the status of " freedom of the seas and states that " since the World War a new conception of neutrality has become widespread." He concludes that " the present chaotic state of the law is regrettable, if not an actual danger to the peace of the world," and thinks that the subject requires " preliminary study by jurists and naval experts."
