Order within Anarchy focuses on how the laws of war create
strategic expectations about how states and their soldiers will act
during war, which can help produce restraint. The success of the
laws of war depends on three related factors: compliance between
warring states and between soldiers on the battlefield, and control
of soldiers by their militaries. A statistical study of compliance
of the laws of war during the twentieth century shows that joint
ratification strengthens both compliance and reciprocity,
compliance varies across issues with the scope for individual
violations, and violations occur early in war. Close study of the
treatment of prisoners of war during World Wars I and II
demonstrates the difficulties posed by states' varied willingness
to limit violence, a lack of clarity about what restraint means,
and the practical problems of restraint on the battlefield.
