This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Luis María Drago was born on 6 May 1859 into a distinguished Argentine family in Buenos Aires, the son of Luis María Drago and Estela Sánchez Drago.
Luis was educated by tutors and in private schools. He began to work for newspapers and to study at the university in 1875. In 1882 he completed a doctorate of laws.
In 1912 Columbia University awarded him an honorary doctorate for contributions to international peace.
Luis Drago began his career as a newspaper editor. Later, he served as a minister of foreign affairs in 1902. At that time, when the British, German fleets and Italy were blockading Venezuela's coast to force payment of debts to their nationals, he wrote to the Argentine minister in Washington setting forth his doctrine, commonly known as the Drago Doctrine, which opposed the forcible collection of debts through military intervention in any South American republic.
In 1909 the United States and Venezuela asked him to arbitrate a claims dispute. Drago represented Argentina at the Hague Peace Conference in 1907.
From 1910 to 1912 Drago, at the behest of Britain and the United States, arbitrated the North Atlantic fisheries dispute, and neither side questioned his decisions. Also he had been invited by the League of Nations to draft the statute of the Permanent Court of International Justice.
Luis María Drago is known for the "Drago Doctrine", which held that international law did not authorize European powers to use armed intervention to force American republics to pay public debts. The Carnegie Endowment for International Peace acclaimed him as "the highest exponent of the intellectual culture of South America".
