Abstract

This article focuses on the concepts of war and peace in international law embedded in academic heritage of such scholars as Gustaw Roszkowski andZygmunt Cybichowski, who represented the positions of the international lawyers and academicians working in Lviv (city being named throughout its history as Leopolis, Lwów, Lemberg and Lvov) in 19th century and early 20thcentury. These authors represent totally opposing standpoints with regard to the use of military force in international relations, arguing however that rules on war need to be systematized and regulated by legal norms. It is assumed that the debates on war and peace, as held at the University of Lviv in 19-th and early 20-th centuries were linked to the constitutional debate on statehood and self-determination for Polish and Ukrainian communities, living at the territory of Galicia in the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
