The law of nations ; or, Principles of the law of nature applied to the conduct and affairs of nations and sovereigns / from the French of Monsieur de Vattel
Vattel, Emer de, 1714-1767
"The appearance in 1758 of Droit des gens, or The Law of Nations, established its author, Emer de Vattel, as a major authority on natural jurisprudence, and his book quickly became the most important work on international law in the eighteenth century. A philosopher, jurist, and diplomat, Vattel (1714-1767) sought to adapt the humanist heritage of Swiss politics to the realities of a modern economy."--BOOK JACKET.
