Blockades, Booty, and Prizes...now illegal?
Manage episode 425709341 series 3290101
Should a country be allowed to blockade (and potentially starve) another country into submission during wartime? Right now, the answer is...sorta??
The legal context of maritime warfare tactics such as blockades, booty, and prizes is evolving. I discuss how these strategies, historically significant in wars like the Revolutionary War and both World Wars, are now complicated by international laws. Special guest Andrew Clapham, a professor of public international law, explains the humanitarian and legal challenges surrounding these tactics in modern warfare. We talk about specific examples, including the ongoing conflicts involving Russia, Ukraine, and Yemen, highlighting the complexity and humanitarian considerations of enforcing blockades today.
