Routledge Handbook of the Law of Armed Conflict (eBook, ePUB)

Redaktion: Liivoja, Rain; Mccormack, Tim

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The law of armed conflict is a key element of the global legal order yet it is recognised that this branch of law is often honoured more in the breach than in the observance. This book provides a unique perspective on the field covering all the key aspects of the law as well as identifying developing and often contentious areas of interest driven by the changes in the nature of warfare.

The handbook will feature original pieces by international experts in the field. Throughout the book attention is paid to international and non-international conflicts, as well as the relationship between the law of armed conflict and human rights law. The book provides a fresh take on the contemporary laws of war and is written for advanced level students, academics, researchers, NGOs and policy-makers with an interest in the field.
