Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. In this book, the author examines the historical events and arguments surrounding the contentious issue of reparations for losses incurred during the American Civil War due to the activities of British-built Confederate cruisers. The author delves into the proceedings of the Geneva Tribunal, established to adjudicate claims against Great Britain, and analyzes the complex legal and ethical considerations that shaped the eventual distribution of funds. The author argues that the distribution of the Geneva Award should prioritize the indemnification of actual sufferers, who bore the brunt of the losses, rather than insurance companies that profited from war premiums. The book sheds light on the multifaceted nature of reparations and the challenges of achieving justice in the aftermath of conflict, making it a valuable resource for scholars, historians, and anyone interested in international law and the legacy of the American Civil War.
