Hitherto 'less-lethal' weapons, in contrast to classical firearms
and other highly destructive weapons, have literally slipped under
the radar of public international law. This book is the first
monograph addressing and analysing all international legal regimes
applicable to less-lethal weapons, ranging from arms control
treaties, international humanitarian, criminal and human rights
law. In doing so the different scenarios in which less-lethal
weapons come to use will be taken into account, such as law
enforcement, armed conflict and law enforcement scenarios during
armed conflict. The relationships between the different legal
regimes will be elaborated thoroughly with a view to examining how
international law responds to less-lethal weapons. The final
chapter provides guidelines as well as recommendations on
appropriate use and regulation of less-lethal weapons, where the
different scenarios of application, such as in armed conflict and
law enforcement, will be given due account.
