Although the relationship between international human rights law
and the law of armed conflict has been the subject of significant
recent academic discussion, there remains a lack of comprehensive
guidance in identifying the law applicable to specific situations
faced by military forces. Providing guidance for armed forces and
practitioners on the detailed application of international human
rights law during armed conflict, this book fills that gap. Part 1
of the volume details foundational information relating to
international human rights law and human rights institutions, the
types of operations that States' armed forces engage in, and how
the law of armed conflict and international human rights law apply
to regulate different situations. Part 2 provides practical
guidance as to the legal regulation of specific situations,
including discussion of the conduct of hostilities, detention
operations, humanitarian assistance, cyber operations, and
investigations. This book is the result of an in-depth process
involving both academic and practitioner experts in the law of
armed conflict and international human rights law who were convened
in meetings at Chatham House chaired by Elizabeth Wilmshurst,
Distinguished Fellow at Chatham House. The group included Professor
Francoise Hampson, Essex University; Professor Dapo Akande, Oxford
University; Charles Garraway, Fellow at Essex University; Professor
Noam Lubell, Essex University; Michael Meyer, British Red Cross;
and Daragh Murray, Lecturer at Essex University.
