Topics as diverse as the evolving spectrum of conflict, innovations
in weaponry, automated and autonomous attack, the depersonalisation
of warfare, detention operations, the influence of modern media and
the application of human rights law to the conduct of hostilities
are examined in this book to see to what extent existing legal
norms are challenged. The book takes each topic in turn, explains
relevant provisions of contemporary law and analyses exactly where
the legal problem lies. The analysis then develops the theme,
examining for example the implications of current rules as to
deception operations for certain applications of cyber warfare. The
text is written in an accessible style, and demonstrates the
continuing relevance of established rules and the importance of
compliance with them. Useful for academics, military, governments,
ministries of defence, ministries of foreign affairs, libraries,
diplomats, think tanks, policy units, NGOs, and all others with an
interest in law of armed conflict issues such as journalists and
students.
