Economic activity continues during war. But what rules apply when
US troops occupy Syrian oil fields? Who is responsible when
multinational companies use minerals extracted by child labourers
in war zones? This book examines how international law regulates
the war economies that are at the heart of strategic competition
between great powers and help sustain the irregular warfare in
today's war zones. Drawing on advances in our understanding of the
social and economic dynamics in war zones, this book identifies
predation, a combination of violence and economic opportunity, as
the core pathology of war economies. The author presents a
framework for understanding the regulation of war economies based
on the history of international law and existing norms of
international humanitarian law, international criminal law,
international human rights law and the law of international peace
and security. War Economies and International Law concludes that
the pathologies of predation in war demand answers based on an
international regulatory strategy.
