Book Description:<br/><br/> Newly revised and updated, The Law of Armed Conflict, introduces students to the law of war in an age of terrorism. What law of armed conflict (LOAC) or its civilian counterpart, international humanitarian law (IHL), applies in a particular armed conflict? Are terrorists bound by that law? What constitutes a war crime? What (or who) is a lawful target and how are targeting decisions made? What are 'rules of engagement' and who formulates them? How can an autonomous weapon system be bound by the law of armed conflict? Why were the Guantánamo military commissions a failure? Featuring new chapters, this book takes students through these topics and more, employing real-world examples and legal opinions from the US and abroad. From Nuremberg to 9/11, from courts-martial to the US Supreme Court, from the nineteenth century to the twenty-first, the law of war is explained, interpreted, and applied with clarity and depth.<br/> A revised and updated third edition of the widely adopted armed conflict textbook<br/> Includes up-to-date coverage of cyber warfare, drone warfare, and terrorism<br/> Provides an accessible introduction to the basics of international humanitarian law, including examples of its application<br/><br/>Table of Contents:<br/><br/>Foreword<br/>Preface and acknowledgments<br/>Table of cases<br/>Table of treaties<br/>1.
