Praise for previous edition: "...a comprehensive,
meticulously-researched study of contemporary international law
governing the use of armed force in international relations...'
Andrew Garwood-Gowers, Queensland University of Technology Law
Review, Volume 12(2) When this first English language edition of
The Law Against War published it quickly established itself as a
classic. Detailed, analytically rigorous and comprehensive, it
provided an indispensable guide to the legal framework regulating
the use of force. Now a decade on the much anticipated new edition
brings the work up to date. It looks at new precedents arising from
the Arab Spring; the struggle against the "Islamic State" in Iraq
and Syria; and the conflicts in Ukraine and Yemen. It also reflects
the new doctrinal debates surrounding recent state practice.
Previous positions are reconsidered and in some cases revised,
notably the question of consensual intervention and the very
definition of force, particularly, to accommodate targeted
extrajudicial executions and cyber-operations. Finally, the new
edition provides detailed coverage of the concept of self-defense,
reflecting recent interpretations of the International Court of
Justice and the ongoing controversies surrounding its definition
and interpretation.
