Focusing on the foundational concepts of natural law and its application to international relations, Grotius presents a detailed analysis of the laws governing war and peace. He explores just causes for conflict, ethical conduct during war, and the treatment of prisoners, emphasizing the necessity of limits on force. Additionally, he outlines the principles of justice that should guide interactions between states, asserting that a natural law of nations exists. This influential treatise has shaped modern legal frameworks and remains a critical reference for scholars and practitioners in international law.
