Title: Correspondence. Albermarle County, Jan, 12, 1861. Wm. C. Rives and V.W. Southall, Esq.'s..
Author: [Virginia]. [Secession]
Seller: McBride Rare Books (United States)
Condition: Good plus.
Description: Albermarle County, Va: January 12, 1861. Good plus.. 3pp., on a small bifolium. Light wear at edges. Some toning and dust soiling. Minor foxing along gutter. An interesting, pre-secession Virginia imprint, in which over five hundred citizens of Albermarle County nominate politicians William Cabell Rives and Valentine Southall to be their representatives at the upcoming Secession Convention, and in which Rives refuses their request. Rives was a long-serving politician, having been a member of the Virginia House of Delegates, the U.S. House of Representatives, the U.S. Senate, the Confederate Congress, as well as Zachary Taylor's Minister to France. In his refusal, Rives cites prior obligation to a separate, conflicting convention on the subject in Washington DC, in addition to the "laborious personal canvass" it would require someone of his age. He does however, advise sober reflection on the possibility of secession: "When we are called upon to break up the Union, in a moment of excitement, by the simultaneous withdrawal of the remaining slaveholding states, under the vain promise of some utopian reconstruction, it becomes us to disabuse our minds of so dangerous a delusion, and to look all the consequences of our action steadily in the face. Our rights must be maintained at all hazards...but if they can be as well, if not better, secured by a course of wise and deliberate action, accompanied with firmness, and avoiding the necessity of such bloody and costly sacrifices, every cool and sober-minded man must say, let the experiment be tried.

Description: 2011. ISBN-13: 9781584776017; ISBN-10: 1584776013. With a New Introductory Essay by Benjamin Ferencz Stone, Julius. Aggression and World Order: A Critique of United Nations Theories of Aggression. Originally published: Berkeley and Los Angeles: University of California Press, 1958. xiv, 226 pp. With a New Introductory Essay by Benjamin Ferencz, Paradoxes of a Sharp Legal Mind: Professor Julius Stone and International Aggression. Reprinted 2006, 2011 by The Lawbook Exchange, Ltd. ISBN-13: 9781584776017. ISBN-10: 1584776013. Hardcover. New. $49.95 * A title in The Lawbook Exchange series, Foundations of the Laws of War. Efforts to enforce world peace during the twentieth century through international organizations created a demand for a legal definition of aggression. A U.N. committee attempted to provide one in a 1956 report. Stone rejected it for two reasons. Citing a broad array of examples, he shows that the concept of aggression eludes definition. More important, he argues controversially that a definition is not necessary for the goals of international peace-enforcement. "Professor Stone puts forward his arguments with his usual great learning and persuasiveness; the result is a stimulating and sane study of a problem whose discussion has so often been characterized by sterility and lack of proportion.": John Collier, Cambridge Law Journal 1960 (1960) 247. Julius Stone (1907-1985) is recognized internationally as a leading legal theorist and authority on international law. Educated at Oxford and Harvard Law School, he taught at Harvard, where he was associated with Roscoe Pound. He went on to become Challis Professor of Jurisprudence and International Law at the University of Sydney. He held the Challis Chair from 1942 to 1972. Upon his retirement from Sydney in 1972, Stone became a visiting Professor of Law at the University of New South Wales. He was the author of numerous books on jurisprudence and international law, including the influential The Province and Function of Law (1946), The International Court and World Crisis (1962), Israel and Palestine: An Assault on the Law of Nations (1981) and Precedent and Law: Dynamics of Common Law Growth (1985). The Julius Stone Institute of Jurisprudence was established in 1999 at the University of Sydney. Benjamin B. Ferencz was the Chief Prosecutor.
