Excerpt from A Treatise on International Public Law During the last fifty years international law, as a living and growing organism, has passed through a more marked and rapid development than in any other single epoch inits entire history. Within that time the awakened conscience of the world has drawn the states composing the family of nations into a closer concert, which has been active in its efiorts to improve the existing system of international relations through a reexamination and restatement of the rules by Which they are regulated. On its scientific side, this move ment has been promoted by a new school of publicists, repre senting nearly every nationality, Whose tireless investigations into every branch of the subject have assumed the systematic form of corporate thought under the guiding hand of the In stitute of International Law. On its practical side, this move ment has been applying the fruits of that kind of research and reflection to the solution of the vital questions presented in rapid succession to the series of international congresses and conferences Which began at Paris in 1856 and ended at The Hague in 1899. When the records of the proceedings of those notable assemblies are read as a connected Whole, it is impossible not to hear the outcry for a higher and more stable international life to be based upon some kind of a code more precise and definite than that embodied in existing rules, and for some kind of an international tribunal With a juris diction more comprehensive than that usually vested in vol untary courts of arbitration. Whether or no such an ideal is attainable, is purely a tentative question to be solved only by patient and persistent efforts made in the light of actual experience. The h0pe of even partial success rests not upon the Utopian dream that the passions and self-interest of mankind will grow less acute, but upon the fact that as nations become more perfectly organized they perceive that stability, comfort and economy may be promoted by a transi tion from the reign of arms to the reign of law.
