Synopsis

"The general object of war is to procure the complete submission of the enemy at the earliest possible period, with the least expenditure of life and property." --Article 1, The Laws and Usages of War at Sea--A Naval War Code

The current laws of war are based on a number of historical codes that regulated the conditions for war and the conduct of warring parties. One of those codes related to naval warfare was The Law and Usages of War at Sea--A Naval War Code, which was the first code of Law of Naval Warfare, prepared by then-Captain Charles H. Stockton and approved by President William McKinley in 1900.

À propos des auteurs

CHARLES HERBERT STOCKTON (1845-1924), a rear admiral in the US Navy, was the Navy's first uniformed expert in International Law. Stockton was the President of the Naval War College, and later served as President of George Washington University from 1910 to 1918.

The US DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY was established in 1798 to provide a government organizational structure to the US Navy, the US Marine Corps, and the US Coast Guard. In 1949, the Department of the Navy became, along with the Department of the Army and Department of the Air Force, a military department within the Department of Defense.
