In neither of his two major forays into the laws of war and peace – De iure praedae or De iure belli ac pacis – did Hugo Grotius discuss the legal institutions of reprisal – whether special or general – or privateering in their own right. His profoundly novel reading of the just war doctrine in the context of his theory of natural rights, however, gave powerful legitimisation to the practices of special reprisals, as well as of privateering in times of war and of peace.

格罗蒂乌斯的报复

在他的两个主要进军战争与和平的法律既不-德iure praedae或德iure战争与和平-没有格劳秀斯讨论报复的法律制度-无论是专用或通用-或者他们自己的权利私掠。然而，他在自然权利理论的背景下对正义战争学说的深刻而新颖的解读，使特殊报复以及战争与和平时期的私有化做法具有强大的合法性。
