It firstly sets out the various Treaties and Conventions, using these as building blocks to understand the four basic principles, military necessity, humanity, distinction and proportionality. Careful consideration is given to the legal position in modern conflict of civilians, mercenaries and non-state actors, as well as parties traditionally regarded as combatants. Particular regard is given to targeting and the protection afforded to detained persons. The guide gives an overview of lawful and unlawful weapons, both conventional and emerging. This book explores how the law of armed conflict has developed and adapted to the new challenges posed by cyber warfare, drones, sexual violence as a weapon, and changes in the geopolitical landscape.The commission, investigation, and jurisdiction over war crimes is considered, including command responsibility and State responsibility for unlawful orders.
