| Sumario: | This contribution re-describes the 1902-3 Venezuelan Blockade and the legal discussions on intervention and sovereign debt in the Americas. The main objective is to assess the legal interpretation developed by Luis Maria Drago to invalidate the forceful collection of debts under international law. The legal treatment of intervention in the region in the beginning of the twentieth century involved an assemblage of political and economic issues – the operation and reconstitution of the Monroe Doctrine and the legal discussions onthe lawfulness of the use of force to collect debts. The focus on sovereign debt opens space for broader interrogations on the role of states in protecting common interests in political communities, and the ways in which armed interventions can be legally justified to that end. Drago’s reactions to the Venezuelan Blockade show in detail the stakes of the Latin American commitment to the idea of non-intervention. |
