Ny bok fra Gentian Zyberi (ed.) 👏 This collection of materials on international humanitarian law (IHL) brings together some key relevant instruments. The book is meant to serve as an aid to the study of international humanitarian law for all interested. Known as international humanitarian law, the law of armed conflict, or jus in bello, this body of fundamental principles and customary and treaty rules aimed at regulating armed conflicts is a key part of public international law. The collection is organized in four sections, covering respectively ‘Selected materials on general legal issues’ (Section I), ‘Selected main international humanitarian law treaties and customary rules’ (Section II), ‘Selected treaties on weapons and disarmament’ (Section III), and ‘International responsibility for war crimes and other internationally recognized crimes’ (Section IV). Jointly, these four sections provide an oversight of more general issues related to international humanitarian law, of the main international humanitarian law treaties and customary international humanitarian law rules, of treaties covering the regulation of means of armed conflict and disarmament efforts, and finally documents related to ensuring responsibility for States and individuals for internationally recognized crimes, including war crimes. This collection tries to further a better understanding of the main elements of IHL and its relation to other fields of public international law as international human rights law, international criminal law, and the law of international responsibility. #Internationallaw #humanrights #law #cappelendamm #cda
