Military commanders from ancient time had set down rules and regulations to discipline their troops. From the Pharaohs on, commanders directed the strategy, tactics, and camp discipline of the often unruly hosts of soldiers under their command. They had one aim: to create an efficient fighting force. Military officers, camp-followers and cooks were all expected to perform their services according to mandate and in light of the best interests of the armed force and the fighting soldiery. Modern commanders have exemplified the same passion for military discipline to produce an effective combat machine. Military analyses derived from Roman law contained enough historical examples to fill an encyclopedia. Yet, although addressed to the problems of their day, they generally remained the private counsel of scholars and had little impact on political and military decisions. While theorists of international law were developing a body of rules to govern warfare, practitioners of conflict were largely moved by the motives of military necessity. Under the dual auspices of military necessity and national self-interest, the code of the military commander was simple: maintain a disciplined fighting force in order to achieve military victory. To remedy this gap between theory and practice, a practical guide was needed which would briefly describe for commanders in the field their rights and obligations of belligerents as custom and theory had developed them. Then political and military policy could be expected to conform to the theoretical law of nations. This was the synthesis that the Lieber code proposed. Originally published in as Lieber's Law and the Code of War, this paperback edition bears a new title that more precisely identifies the subjects covered.

Excerpt from A Code for the Government of Armies in the Field : The American people, as all civilized nations, look with horror upon offers of rewards for the assassination of any enemies, as relapses into the disgraceful courses of savage times. The assassination of a prisoner of war, is a murder of the blackest kind, and if it takes place, in consequence of the offer of a reward or not, and remains unpunished by the hostile government, the Law of War authorizes the most impressive retaliation, so that the repetition of a crime most dangerous to civilization, may be prevented, and a downward course into barbarity may be arrested.

"Published a year before Lieber's code, this pamphlet contains several ideas that were incorporated into that work. Halleck's commission resonates with our current debates concerning the definition of 'enemy combatants' and prisoners of war. In the letter to Lieber that is reproduced as a preface Halleck states: 'The rebel authorities claim the right to send men, in the garb of peaceful citizens, to waylay and attack our troops, to burn bridges and houses, and to destroy property and persons within our lines. They demand such persons be treated as ordinary belligerents, and that when captured they have extended to them the same rights as other prisoners of war; they also threaten that if such persons be punished as marauders and spies, they will retaliate by executing our prisoners of war in their possession. I particularly request your view on these questions.'"--Lawbook Exchange.

Francis (Franz) Lieber was a German-born American jurist, political philosopher, political scientist, scholar and publicist. His life was multifaceted and so are his publications - and his influence. Francis Lieber was not only one of the most important American jurists of his time, it is his immense impetus for the development of international law, especially in regard to the humanisation of the law of war, that contributed to his universal appreciation; this is evident in the 21st century even more than during his lifetime.On behalf of US President Lincoln, Francis Lieber prepared the General Order no 100 containing the Instruction for the Government of the Armies of the United States in the Field of 24 April 1863, the so-called Lieber Code. The code was an internal non-binding code of conduct and the first national manual on the laws of armed conflict. De facto the Lieber Code laid down rules which were, at least partly, rules of the customary laws of war of the time.In an overall assessment, it was the influential achievement of Lieber that his code effectively incorporated the aim to humanise the rules of land warfare and systematised all rules applicable during land warfare: Francis Lieber was the catalysing force for the development of the modern, humanitarian law.

"General Orders Number 100" was the first written codification of the laws of war by any nation. This code of war was written during the American Civil War by Francis Lieber. Lieber was a devout Unionist who implemented this document to provide guidelines and protection of troops on both sides of the conflict. The thesis explains Lieber's qualifications for writing this code of war, the need for these written guidelines, the impact of the written code on the war effort, as well as the future usage of Lieber's Code.
