Excerpt from International Law Codified and Its Legal Sanction: Or the Legal Organization of the Society of States
The translator's admiration for his friend, Pasqualc Fiore, made him the more eager to pay a just tribute to a constructive scholar of international renown by accepting the invitation of the Division of International Law of the Carnegie Endowment to introduce to the English-speaking public Fiore's "International Law Codified." The Carnegie Endowment, in offering the book to the American public is carrying out its plan of widening the horizon of American students in the field of international law, as is already being done with marked success by the Institute of Criminal Law and the Association of American Law Schools in the fields of criminology, philosophy of law and legal history.
The book docs not purport to be a code of existing international law, but rather a systematic body of rules evolved by the author out of his accurate knowledge of positive law and of the defects of the prevailing system and submitted for adoption to the nations of the world for the better legal regulation of their mutual interests and relations. In this day of reorganization of the international order, Fiore's proposals for reform cannot but meet with attentive consideration, and the scientific and practical training of the author must lend weight to his recommendations. The book, begun in the author's fiftieth year, embodies the fruits of long thought upon and extensive experience with the problems with which it deals. The principal reforms suggested by the author are more specifically set forth in the Introduction.
