Policymakers, legislators, scientists, thinkers, military
strategists, academics, and all those interested in understanding
the future want to know how twenty-first century scientific advance
should be regulated in war and peace. This book tries to provide
some of the answers. Part I summarises some important elements of
the relevant law. In Part II, individual chapters are devoted to
cyber capabilities, highly automated and autonomous systems, human
enhancement technologies, human degradation techniques, the
regulation of nanomaterials, novel naval technologies, outer space,
synthetic brain technologies beyond artificial intelligence, and
biometrics. The final part of the book notes important synergies
that emerge between the different technologies and legal
provisions, existing and proposed, assesses notions of convergence
and of composition in international law, and provides some
concluding remarks. The new technologies, their uses, and their
regulation in war and peace are presented to the reader who is
invited to draw conclusions.
