War, Conflict and Human Rights is an innovative, interdisciplinary
textbook combining aspects of law, politics, and conflict analysis
to examine the relationship between human rights and armed
conflict. This second edition has been revised and updated, making
use of both theoretical and practical approaches. Over the course
of the book, the authors: examine the tensions and
complementarities between protection of human rights and resolution
of conflict, including the competing political demands and the
challenges posed by internal armed conflict; analyse the different
obligations and legal regimes applicable to state and non-state
actors, including non-state armed groups, corporations and private
military and security companies; explore the scope and effects of
human rights violations in contemporary armed conflicts, such as
those in Sierra Leone, Sudan, the Democratic Republic of Congo, and
the former Yugoslavia, and implications for the "Arab Spring";
assess the legal and institutional accountability mechanisms
developed in the wake of armed conflict to punish violations of
human rights law, and international humanitarian law such as the ad
hoc tribunals for the former Yugoslavia and Rwanda, and the
International Criminal Court; discuss continuing and emergent
global trends and challenges in the fields of human rights and
conflict analysis. This volume will be essential reading for
students of war and conflict studies, human rights, and
international humanitarian law, and highly recommended for students
of conflict resolution, peacebuilding, international security and
international relations, generally.
