Totum bellum

Totum bellum est bellum quod ullas omnesque opes et infrastructuram cum hominibus privatis consociatam ut scopos militares licitos comprehendere potest, casusque accipit privatos vel aliorum non pugatorum magni momenti ut detrimentum collaterale quod ex impetu contra tales scopos consequitur. Nomen totum solum ad iactum scoporum et modorum acceptorum, non ad spatium destructionis, attingit. Totum bellum haberi potest "bellum quod per arma adhibita, territoria vel pugnatores implicatos, vel proposita petita, praecipue unum in quo leges belli negleguntur, effrenatum est."^[1][2]

Academici medio saeculo undevicensimo totum bellum esse distinctum belli genus definierunt. In toto bello, ut non in minoribus pugnis, differentia pugnatorum et non pugnatorum minuitur, aliquandoque omnino evanescit, quia partes adversae paene omnem subsidium humanum, etiam adeo res non pugnatorum, proprietates nisus bellici, propaganda considerare possunt.^[3]
