This book brings together and critically analyses the disparate
conventional, customary, and soft law relating to non-international
armed conflict. All the relevant bodies of international law are
considered, including international humanitarian law, international
criminal law, and international human rights law. The book traces
the changes to the legal framework applicable to non-international
armed conflict from ad hoc regulation in the nineteenth and early
twentieth century, to systematic regulation through the 1949 Geneva
Conventions and 1977 Additional Protocols, to the transformation of
the law in the mid-1990s. Armed conflicts ranging from the US civil
war, the Algerian War of Independence, and the attempted secession
of Biafra, through to the current conflicts in the Colombia,
Philippines, and Sudan are all considered. The identification and
analysis of the law is complemented by a consideration of the
practice, allowing both violations of, and respect for, the law, to
be ascertained. Given that non-international armed conflicts are
fought between states and non-state armed groups, or between armed
groups, particular attention is paid to the oft-neglected views of
armed groups. This is done through an analysis of hundreds of
statements, unilateral declarations, internal regulations, and
bilateral agreements issued by armed groups. Equivalent material
emanating from states parties to conflicts is also considered. The
book is thus an essential reference point for the law and practice
of non-international armed conflicts.
