Foreign violence

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The foreign violence of a state affects the international law area of ​​its external relations. At the time, colonial violence was a sub-case of foreign violence .

Demarcation from foreign policy

While foreign policy affects the entire area of international relations , external violence is only that sub-area that takes place at the level of international law.

Foreign violence in the system of separation of powers

In the system of separation of powers , external power is not an independent state power like the legislative , executive and judicial branches . Rather, the three classical powers are directed inwards, while the competencies of the outwardly directed external powers are distributed among the bearers of the three powers.

In a federal state like the Federal Republic of Germany, this can not only result in the division of competencies among the various state organs , but also - if the state as a whole has given its member states subjectivity under international law - various association competencies .
