    Jus gentium

    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


    Jump to: navigation, search Jus gentium, Latin for "law of nations", was originally the part of Roman law that the Roman Empire applied to its dealings with foreigners, especially provincial subjects. In later times the Latin term came to refer to the natural or common law among nations[citation needed] considered as states within a larger human society, especially governing the rules of peace and war, national boundaries, diplomatic exchanges, and extradition, that together with jus inter gentes makes up public international law. Jon Roland, of the Constitution Society, lists[1] several rules of law that make up the jus gentium, including: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. Not attacking other nations, except in declared wars and similar situations; Honoring truce, peace treaties, and boundaries; Protecting wrecked ships and persons thereon; Prosecuting piracy; Caring decently for prisoners of war; Protection of embassies and diplomats; Honoring extradition treaties; Prohibiting slavery and trading in slaves [dubious discuss](maybe now but certainly not in antiquity).

    Jus inter gentes


    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
    Jump to: navigation, search Jus inter gentes, or ius inter gentes, is the body of treaties, U.N. conventions, and other international agreements. Originally a Roman law concept, it later became a major part of public international law. The other major part is jus gentium, the Law of Nations referred to in the United States Constitution, Article I, Section 8, Clause 10.[1] Jus inter gentes, literally, means "law between the peoples".[2] Jon Roland, of the Constitution Society, notes that John Foster Dulles pronounced the so-called Dulles Doctrine that treaties and United Nations resolutions can be part of the Law of Nations for purposes of the U.S. Constitution.[1]

    This is not the same as jus gentium, argues Francisco Martin and his co-authors in "International Human Rights and Humanitarian Law" (2006),[3] because jus inter gentes includes internationally recognized human rights.
