special reprisal

Read a random definition: verba concepta

A quick definition of special reprisal:

Special reprisal is a term used in international law to describe the use of force, but not war, against another country to make up for harm caused by that country. It's like when someone takes something from you, and you take something of theirs to make it even. Reprisals can be done by a country to get back at another country for doing something wrong, but it's not as serious as going to war. Some people use the word "reprisal" to mean any kind of action a country takes to make another country pay for doing something wrong.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Special reprisal is a term used in international law to describe the use of force, short of war, by one country against another to seek redress for an injury caused by that country. It is a form of retaliation.

Example: If Country A imposes unfair trade restrictions on Country B, Country B may respond with a special reprisal by imposing similar restrictions on Country A's exports. This is done to pressure Country A to remove its unfair restrictions.

This example illustrates how special reprisal is used as a means of resolving disputes between countries without resorting to war. It allows countries to take action against each other in a controlled and limited way, while still seeking a peaceful resolution to their differences.
