Referring to the starvation caused by the blockade of Germany during World War I and the humanitarian crisis caused by the sanctions regime against Iraq (1991-2003), this book demonstrates that blockade can have extremely deleterious effects for vulnerable civilian populations. In this context the current law of blockade is examined, and found to be deficient in terms of its protection for civilians. Recognizing and advocating that blockade should remain as a valid and effective method of warfare, the book offers a template for a modern law of blockade maritime blockade that incorporates many of the traditional aspects of the law, while reducing the possibilities that blockades can cause or exacerbate humanitarian disasters. 505 00 $g Conclusion. $t International human rights law and blockade -- $t The law of contraband -- $t The historical practice of blockade -- $t Blockade law -- $t Blockade and the civilian population -- $t International humanitarian law and blockade -- $t Blockade in non-international armed conflict -- $t International human rights law and blockade -- $g Conclusion. 650 0 $a Blockade $x History. 650 0 $a Maritime law. 650 0 $a Humanitarian law. 650 7 $a Blockade $2 gnd 650 7 $a HumanitaÂres VoÂlkerrecht $2 gnd 650 7 $a Krieg $2 gnd 650 7 $a Blockade. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00834524 650 7 $a Humanitarian law. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00963577 650 7 $a Maritime law. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01010102 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 830 0 $a Oxford monographs in international humanitarian and criminal law. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231021021719.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=AAAF8970580511E8A8F83C5097128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
