Summary
The circulation of the Law of Nations: or, Principles of the Law of Nature Applied to the Conduct and Affairs of Nations and Sovereigns, which began immediately after its publication in 1758 through the various editions and the first eighteenth-century translations, allowed Vattel’s thinking to spread in a juridical–political context that went beyond time and space.
