Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book takes the reader on an enlightening journey through 100 years of peace between Canada and the United States, beginning with the aftermath of the American Revolutionary War. The author observes the ways in which these two nations' diplomacy was grounded in the principles of justice and right, and not might. The resulting peace was often mediated by lawyers, since many legal questions arose from disputed international borders. The author explores the various ways in which the two nations determined a "just" peace, even in the face of complex issues including escaped slaves, fishing rights, and illegal seizures during the War of 1812. The author comes to the conclusion that the deep, lasting peace between the two nations was likely made possible by a shared understanding of international right and duty.
