New Publication: Non-State Actors in Armed Conflict

Book chapter contributed by Gerd Oberleitner in new publication "International Humanitarian Law and Non-State Actors – Debates, Law and Practice"

UNESCO Chair Gerd Oberleitner contributes a chapter on the development of international humanitarian law by human rights bodies to a new publication: E. Heffes, M. Kotlik and M. Ventura, International Humanitarian Law and Non-State Actors – Debates, Law and Practice (Asser/Springer 2020), https://www.springer.com/gp/book/9789462653382. The 15 contributions by leading scholars on international humanitarian law challenge the traditional approach to international law by placing the focus beyond States and reflect on current legal, policy and practical issues that concern non-State actors in and around situations of armed conflict.
