"UIP1 w Vol. 76, No. 37 5 profess Rv flauirl Hill Five USC faculty members condemned the invasion of Grenada yesterday, calling it a violation of international law and a sign of American imperialism and belligerance. The professors from the departments of History and Government and International Studies took part in a critical forum on the invasion to, as Peter Sederberg said, offer viewpoints opposing those of the Reagan administration. Natalie Hevener, speaking on the international law ramifications of the invasion, said "the United States has violated international law in its invasion of Grenada," and did it "most clearly in precipituously using force." Among international laws violated were the United Nations . i. . i*i r i j r r cnarter, wmcn loroicis use 01 torce, and the treaty of the Organization of Eastern Caribbean States, Hevener said. Members of the organization asked for American help in invading Grenada. The OECS treaty calls for unanimity in decisions to use force against a member nation, but the vote to ask for U.S. aid "was not unanimous ? both Grenada and Guyana condemned it," Hevener said. THE U.N. charter forbids a nation from interfering in another's internal affairs, and "this is crucial in a system of independent nation states," Hevener said. Barbara Tenenbaum, speaking on the invasion's effects in Latin America, called the invasion "counterproductive."
