The book presents the international laws on the use of force
whilst demonstrating the unique insight a feminist analysis offers
this central area of international law. The book highlights key
conceptual barriers to the enhanced application of the law of the
use of force, and develops international feminist method through
rigorous engagement with the key writers in the field
The book looks at the key aspects of the UN Charter relevant to
the use of force ? Article 2(4), Article 51 and Chapter VII powers
? as well as engaging with contemporary debates on the possibility
of justified force to meet self-determination or humanitarian
goals. The text also discusses the arguments in favour of the use
of pre-emptive force and reflects on the role feminist legal
theories can play in exposing the inconsistencies of contemporary
arguments for justified force under the banner of the war on
terror. Throughout the text state practice and institutional
documentation are analysed, alongside key instances of the use of
force.
The book makes a genuine, urgently needed contribution to a
central area of international law, demonstrating the capacity of
feminist legal theories to enlarge our understanding of key
international legal dilemmas.
