Neutrality is a legal relationship between a belligerent State and
a State not participating in a war, namely a neutral State. The law
of neutrality is a body of rules and principles that regulates the
legal relations of neutrality. The law of neutrality obliges
neutral States to treat all belligerent States impartially and to
abstain from providing military and other assistance to
belligerents. The law of neutrality is a branch of international
law that developed in the nineteenth century, when international
law allowed unlimited freedom of sovereign States to resort to war.
Thus, there has been much debate as to whether such a branch of law
remains valid in modern international law, which generally
prohibits war and the use of force by States. While there has been
much debate regarding the current status of neutrality in modern
international law, there is a general agreement among scholars as
to the basic features of the traditional law of neutrality. Wani
challenges the conventional understanding of the traditional
neutrality by re-examining the historical development of the law of
neutrality from the sixteenth century to 1945. The modification of
the conventional understanding will provide a fundamentally new
framework for discussing the current status of neutrality in modern
international law.
