The Rule of Law in Crisis and Conflict Grey Zones: Regulating the Use of Force in a Global Information Environment de Michael John-Hopkins

The Rule of Law in Crisis and Conflict Grey Zones: Regulating the Use of Force in a Global Information Environment

Autor Michael John-Hopkins
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 4 sep 2018
This book responds to ongoing calls for clarification and consensus regarding the meaning, scope and interplay of humanitarian law and human rights law in the ‘grey zones’ of unconventional operational environments such as counterterrorism and counterinsurgency operations. It contributes to the debate in this area by developing objective criteria for determining where the shift from the legal framework of law enforcement to that of non-international armed conflict occurs in relation to targeting law and weaponry law; by developing improved objective criteria for determining what constitutes direct participation in hostilities and de facto membership in an organised armed group; by taking stock of how existing targeting and weaponry rules are being applied to unconventional conflicts within civilian populated areas by key state players as well as by international and regional human rights mechanisms; by arguing for the progressive realisation of targeting and weaponry law so that they are more fitting for operational environments that are increasingly urbanised and civilianised; by seeking to understand how global networked connectivity may affect our understanding of the operational theatre of war and the geographical reach of the legal framework of non-international armed conflict.

Recenzii

This book is an innovative, yet pragmatic, approach to cutting the Gordian knot caused by the increasing overlap of jurisdiction between international human rights law and international humanitarian law, in particular, tackling head on the differences relating to the use of force in targeting operations. Professor Charles Garraway, Human Rights Centre, University of Essex.
As history demonstrates, this maintenance [of international peace and security] often necessitates the use of force in response to international and increasingly non-international crises and conflicts. Uncertainty and controversy not only surrounds the classification of these situations of crisis and conflict but also the meaning, scope and interplay of humanitarian law and human rights law in situations of irregular armed conflict and other situations of violence. Resulting from an increased overlap in jurisdiction between human rights law and humanitarian law, Michael John-Hopkins makes a valuable contribution to this dialogue. The book sheds light on these uncertainties and controversies in a carefully considered, comprehensive and coherent narrative on a range of interrelated fundamental issues concerning the interpretation and ordering of norms of humanitarian and human rights law relating to targeting and weaponry in contemporary conflict situations.

Descriere

This book attempts to clarify what targeting and weaponry rules apply to the use of force in situations of irregular armed conflict and violence. In particular, it focuses on developing objective criteria for determining where the shift from a law and order paradigm to an armed conflict occurs; developing improved objective criteria for determining civilian direct participation in hostilities and de facto membership in an organized armed group; examining how existing rules are being applied to unconventional conflicts within civilian populated areas by key state players as well as by international and regional human rights mechanisms.
