Published during the final months of the First World War, Wehberg's monograph contained several ideas that were adopted by the Permanent Court of International Justice. "The present volume...cannot be read by any one without admiration for the skilful manner in which [Wehberg] has discussed the various problems connected with an international court and without a feeling of gratitude for the balanced judgment and the spirit of fairness which he has displayed in the attempt to solve the problems connected with the proposed court, which are both many and difficult" (from the Introductory Note by James Brown Scott).
