This book explores how best to recalibrate our understanding of
international lawmaking through the lens of increased reporting and
legal debate around covert and quasi-covert uses of force. Recent
changes in practice and communication call for closer attention to
be paid to the requirement of publicity for state practice, since
they challenge the perception of the concepts 'public' and
'covert', and thus raise questions as to the impact that covert and
quasi-covert acts do and should have on the development of
international law. It is argued that, in order to qualify as such
practice, acts must be both publicly known and acknowledged. The
book further examines how state silence around covert and
quasi-covert operations has opened up significant space for legal
scholars and other experts to influence the development of
international law.
