Description
This comprehensive analysis explores the rules regulating internal hostilities and their consequences, including intervention by foreign states, the role of the UN Security Council, and the effects of recognition. Yoram Dinstein examines both conceptual and specific issues, such as the complexities of 'failing' states and the recruitment and use of child soldiers.
The author draws on extensive case law from international courts and tribunals to identify and set out customary international law, as well as the contents of available treaty texts. This updated edition takes into account the latest developments in state practice, judicial pronouncements, and UN Security Council resolutions.
