		Born to ethnic Estonian parents at Pärnu (Pernau) in Estonia, then part of the Russian Empire, Martens was later raised and educated as a German-speaker.
		Of Martens’ original works his International Law of Civilised Nations is perhaps the best known; it was written in Russian, a German edition appearing in 1884-1885, and a French edition in 1887-1888.
		Friedrich Martens should not be confused with Georg Friedrich von Martens (1756–1821) who was incidentally also an international lawyer, born in Hamburg.

	Fyodor Fyodorovich Martens (1845-1909) - a humanist of modern times
		Martens believed that it was time to "start looking into the laws of the historical development of nations in their international life".
		Martens considered protection of the rights, interests and property of a human being to be the substance of the entire system of international relations and regarded respect for human rights as a yardstick of the degree of civilization of States and international relations.
		Martens was fascinated by the fact that a country as small as Switzerlandhad seven universities, that the university jubilee was being celebrated as a public holiday by the town and the whole canton of Bern and that this little canton maintained a university and provided for it better than Russia did for her institutions.

	The Martens Clause and the Laws of Armed Conflict
		The UK argued that the Martens Clause makes clear that the absence of a specific treaty prohibition on the use of nuclear weapons does not in itself mean that the weapons are capable of lawful use.
		It is clear that the UK adopted a narrow interpretation of the Clause, reducing the Martens Clause to the status of a reminder of the existence of positive customary norms of international law not included in specific treaties.
		The Martens Clause is important because, through its reference to customary law, it stresses the importance of customary norms in the regulation of armed conflicts.

	Fyodor Fyodorovich Martens (1845-1909) - a humanist of modern times
		According to Martens, the inviolability of human life, honour and dignity is recognized to be the right of everyone, not because it is protected by criminal law, but because everyone has an inalienable right to life, honour and dignity.

	Fyodor Fyodorovich Martens (1845-1909) - a humanist of modern times
		Martens believed that it was time to "start looking into the laws of the historical development of nations in their international life".
		Martens' humanism was incompatible with the spirit of militarism even that emanating from his own homeland.
		Martens has already been assigned his rightful place among the creators of international humanitarian law with respect to its "Law of Geneva" and "Law of the Hague" branches, but now we can include him among those who laid the foundations of another branch, that of the protection of fundamental human rights.

	A note from the Editor
		The Martens clause forms part of the absolute core of knowledge which all legal experts interested in international humanitarian law must possess.
		The International Court of Justice has just reaffirmed the topical nature of this principle — which does, however, date back almost one hundred years — in its Advisory Opinion on the Legality of the Threat or Use of Nuclear Weapons.
		In his contribution Professor Rupert Ticehurst discusses the history and significance of the clause, whose author, Fyodor Fyodorovich Martens, was the subject of an article in the May-June 1996 edition of the Review.

	PLACE PRIORITY ON HUMAN RIGHTS IN APPLYING INTERNATIONAL LAW By Niels Helveg Petersen
		When force may ultimately be used, it goes without saying that international rules and customs governing the conduct of armed conflicts must be respected by all parties to the conflict, in particular the basic distinction between combatants and civilians and between military and civilian targets.
		One hundred years ago, at the Hague peace conference of 1899, Fyodor Fyodorovich Martens, a Russian diplomat and expert on the laws of war, introduced what has become known as the Martens clause.
		It says that the victims of armed conflict must always remain under the protection of the principles of humanity and the dictates of public conscience.

		Where, on a narrow old-town street (for Heaven’s sake, am I simply making all this up?), in an old, proud, mildly pretentious building belonging to a lawyer (no, I am not making this up, so help me God), I was born, eighty-nine years before my own birth.

		A letter by Mr Frederick Kissoon captioned "How can Mr Chavez lecture the world on American imperialism when his government bullies its small neighbour?" (07.03.07) claimed that the Severo Mallet-Prevost memorandum, published after his death, accused the United States of conspiring with Britain in the 1899 award.
		The Mallet-Prevost memorandum, published in the American Journal of International Law in July 1949, actually accused the Russian President of the arbitration tribunal, Mr Fyodor Fyodorovich de Martens (Frederic de Martens), of making a deal with Britain which robbed Venezuela in the final award.
		I will show that events leading up to the 1899 award revealed that the United States was clearly on the side of Venezuela in the border controversy.

		The preamble to Protocol II, which applies to non-international armed conflict, similarly recalls that "in cases not covered by the law in force, the human person remains under the protection of the principles of humanity and the dictates of public conscience."
		This wording finds its origins in the work of a remarkable Russian diplomat and scholar, Fyodor Martens, who played a central role in the work of the two Peace Conferences called by Czar Nicholas II and held in The Hague in 1899 and 1907.
		It was he who proposed the generous humanitarian wording to resolve an impasse in the drafting of the Hague Convention on the laws and customs of war.
