What law of armed conflict (LOAC), or its civilian analog, international humanitarian law (IHL), applies in a particular armed conflict? Are terrorist groups legally bound by that law? What constitutes a war crime? Who is a lawful target in a conflict involving nonstate terrorist groups? What are 'rules of engagement' and who formulates them? Are nuclear weapons contrary to the law of war? What are 'gray zone' conflicts? How are targeting decisions made? How can an autonomous weapon system be bound by law of armed conflict? Has anyone been convicted at Guantanamo and why have US military commissions failed? This textbook takes students and other interested readers through these law of armed conflict questions, and more, explaining each of them in nontechnical terms, with real-world examples and legal opinions from the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, Yugoslavia and other jurisdictions. From the nineteenth century to today, from courts-martial to the US Supreme Court, from Nuremberg to 9/11, Gary Solis explains, interprets, and applies today's law of war in nontechnical terms"-- $c Provided by the publisher. 650 0 $a War (International law) 650 0 $a Humanitarian law. 650 7 $a Humanitarian law. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00963577 650 7 $a War (International law) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01170412 776 08 $i Online version: $a Solis, Gary D. $t Law of armed conflict $b [Third edition]. $d Cambridge, United Kingdom ; New York, NY : Cambridge University Press, 2022 $z 9781108917797 $w (DLC) 2021027181 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20230517011405.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=59937ED8DCB911EC8436229451ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
