This volume is the product of the Centre for Studies and Research
of the Hague Academy of International Law for 2007. A total of 23
young academics and practitioners from 16 countries participated in
the Centre's summer session, and all contributed to a very valuable
scholarly exploration and exchange of views on a vital topic. The
volume consists of the introductory reports of the two Directors of
Studies (Professor D. Momtaz of the University of Teheran and
Professor M.J. Matheson of George Washington Law School), together
with contributions by 13 of the Centre participants that were
deemed to be particularly worthy of publication, an extensive
bibliography and a general index. The topic for 2007 was "Rules and
Institutions of International Humanitarian Law Put to the Test of
Recent Armed Conflicts". It reflects the fact that international
humanitarian law has gone through a period of considerable
expansion and development in the past two decades, including the
conclusion of several new international humanitarian law
conventions and codes of offences, the creation of a number of
criminal tribunals to prosecute international humanitarian law
violations, and the effort by the ICRC to produce a comprehensive
elaboration of customary law in the field. But the topic also
reflects the fact that this body of law has been seriously tested
by the armed conflicts of recent years, which have often been vast
in scope, long in duration and severe in their human consequences.
These conflicts have challenged both the norms themselves and the
new institutions that have been created to enforce them. Cet
ouvrage est le fruit des travaux du Centre d'etude et de recherche
de l'Academie de droit international de La Haye de 2007. Un total
de vingt-trois jeunes enseignants et praticiens provenant de seize
pays differents ont participe a la session d'ete du Centre, et tous
ont contribue a une exploration scientifique et a un echange de
vues d'un grand interet sur un sujet essentiel. Ce volume comporte
les rapports introductifs des deux directeurs d'etudes, ainsi que
les contributions de treize participants au Centre qui ont ete
jugees particulierement interessantes pour etre publiees, une
bibliographie tres etendue et un index general. Le sujet choisi
pour 2007 a ete " Les regles et les institutions du droit
international humanitaire a l'epreuve des conflits armes recents ".
Ce choix reflete le fait que le droit international humanitaire a
connu une periode d'expansion et de developpements importants au
cours des deux dernieres decennies, y compris la conclusion de
plusieurs nouvelles conventions et codes penaux en cette matiere,
la creation d'un certain nombre de juridictions penales pour la
repression des violations du droit international humanitaire, et
les efforts du CICR en vue de circonscrire le droit coutumier dans
ce domaine. Mais le choix de ce sujet reflete egalement le fait que
ce corpus de droit a ete serieusement mis a l'epreuve par les
recents conflits armes, lesquels ont souvent ete vastes dans leur
etendue, longs dans leur duree, et severes dans leurs consequences
humaines. Ces conflits ont mis au defi a la fois les normes
ellesmemes et les nouvelles institutions creees pour les
sanctionner. Originally published as Colloques / Workshops - Law
Books of the Academy, Volume 30.
