Summary
Details

""Institutes of Natural Law"" presents the substance of lectures delivered by Thomas Rutherforth at St. John's College, Cambridge, focusing on Hugo Grotius' seminal work, ""De Jure Belli et Pacis"" (On the Law of War and Peace). This volume delves into the principles of natural law, exploring its foundations and applications within the context of political and legal philosophy. Rutherforth's lectures offer a detailed examination of Grotius' theories, providing valuable insights into the development of international law and the philosophical underpinnings of justice and morality.

This work is a significant resource for scholars interested in the history of legal thought, the evolution of natural law theory, and the intellectual context of the 18th century. Its enduring relevance lies in its exploration of fundamental questions concerning human rights, the laws governing nations, and the relationship between law, morality, and politics.
