CHILDREN

Child soldier victims of genocidal forcible transfer : exonerating child soldiers charged with grave conflict-related international crimes / Sonja C. Grover. - Heidelberg [etc.] : Springer, 2012. - XVI, 302 p. ; 22 cm. - Bibliographies. Index. - ISBN 9783642236136This book provides an original legal analysis of child soldiers recruited into armed groups or forces committing mass atrocities and/or genocide as the victims of the genocidal forcible transfer of children. Legal argument is made regarding the lack of criminal culpability of such child soldier "recruits" for conflict-related international crimes and the inapplicability of currently recommended judicial and non-judicial accountability mechanisms in such cases. The book challenges various anthroplogical accounts of child soldiers' alleged "tactical agency" to resist committing atrocity as members of armed groups or forces committing mass atrocity and/or genocide. Also provided are original interpretations of relevant international law including an interpretation of the Rome Statute age-based exclusion from prosecution of persons who were under 18 at the time of perpetrating the crime as substantive law setting an international standard for the humane treatment of child soldiers.362.7/355

Should child soldiers be punished for war crimes ? : inspired by the case of Omar Khadr / Victor Roman. - Saarbrücken : Lap Lambert Academic, 2011. - 69 p. ; 22 cm. - Bibliographie : p. 63-69. - ISBN 9783845412474This paper takes a theoretical approach to examining the justification for punishing child soldiers for war crimes. The author uses a wide range of academic literature from the field of Politics, Philosophy, Sociology, Media, Law and Psychology to explain this very comlpex issue surrounding child soldiers. The author is inspired by Omar Khadr's case, a young soldier who has been detained since he was at the age of 15, Novembre 2002, in Guantanamo Bay and tried for alleged war crimes. The paper analyses this apparent breach of international law through an ethical lens with the hope that it can find a real justification for punishing child soldiers who commit atrocities. The author goes through controversial issues such as childhood being a social construct and children being rational moral agents, the diffusion of combatant's responsibility for war crimes and the moral justification of punishment. The aim of this paper is


4

to launch an in-depth debate on a topic which might have been considered straightforward, but as the author proves, it deserves the full attention of scholars in the field of Political Science and Law.362.7/354

Cyber war will not take place / Thomas Rid. - In: Journal of strategic studies, Vol. 35, no. 1, p. 5-32, February 2012. - Photocopies. - Bibliographie : p. 30-32For almost two decades, experts and defense establishments the world over have been predicting that cyber war is coming. But is it? This article argues in three steps that cyber war has never happened in the past, that cyber war does not take place in the present, and that it is unlikely that cyber war will occur in the future. It first outlines what would constitute cyber war: a potentially lethal, instrumental, and political act of force conducted through malicious code. The second part shows what cyber war is not, case-by-case. Not one single cyber offense on record constitutes an act of war on its own. The final part offers a more nuanced terminology to come to terms with cyber attacks. All politically motivated cyber attacks are merely sophisticated versions of three activities that are as old as warfare itself: sabotage, espionage, and subversion.355/935 (Br.)

The cumulative requirements of jus ad bellum and jus in bello in the context of self-defense / Keiichiro Okimoto. - In: Chinese Journal of International Law, Vol. 11, no. 1, March 2012, p. 45-75. - PhotocopiesIt is sometimes suggested that even if certain measures in self-defense violate jus in bello (international humanitarian law), such measures can be continued by justifying them on the basis of jus ad bellum (international law regulating the resort to force), in particular by justifying that the measures were necessary and proportionate in relation to the initial armed attack. However, State practice, decisions of international courts and arbitration, and opinions of experts indicate the contrary, that if the measures in self-defense violate jus in bello, those violations cannot be ignored or nullified by justifiying the measures as necessary and proportionate self-defense. Once the measures in self-defense violate jus in bello, they must be ceased immediately.345.2/876 (Br.)

Human rights and humanitarian law : conflict or convergence / Christopher Greenwood. -In: Case Western Reserve journal of international law, Vol. 43, nos. 1&2, 2010, p. 491-512. - Frederick K. Cox International Law Center Lecture in Human Rights and Humanitarian Law.The relationship between the international law of human rights and international humanitarian law is a highly controversial topical subject. To one group, everything that happens in the war on terror and, in particular at Guantanamo, is a matter solely for the laws of war. It fits into the box marked "humanitarian law" so that human rights law has nothing whatever to do with it. To another group, it is a human rights and law-enforcement issue that has little or nothing to do with the laws of war. The lecturer tries to show that neither of those two perspectives gives the whole truth. Neither is a self-contained entity and their keenest proponents do themselves a disservice by pretending that the two bodies of law are mutually exclusive and must always be in conflict. A human rights lawyer should be a humanitarian lawyer as well. Similarly, particularly, a military lawyer, cannot today overlook the dimension of the international law of


10

human rights. It’s a matter of being a good lawyer rather than being a human rights lawyer or a humanitarian lawyer.345.2/866

Essays on law and war at the fault lines / Michael N. Schmitt. - The Hague : T. M. C. Asser Press ; Berlin ; Heidelberg : Springer, 2012. - XII, 637 p. ; 24 cm. - Bibliographies. - ISBN 9789067047395This collection of essays by Professor Michael N. Schmitt, Chairman of the International Law Department at the United States Naval War College, draws together those of his articles published over the past two decades that have explored particular fault lines in the law of armed conflict. As such, they examine the complex interplay between warfare and law, seeking to identify where the law and warfare appear to diverge, and where such apparent divergence can be accommodated through contextual interpretation of the law. Each essay examines a particular issue in either the jus ad bellum (the law governing resort to force) or jus in bello (international humanitarian law) that has proven contentious in terms of applying extant norms to the evolving face of armed conflict. Among the topics addressed are counter-terrorism, cyber operations, asymmetrical warfare, assassination, environmental warfare and the participation of civilians in hostilities. The essays brought together in this book, dealing with the most complex and controversial issues of International Humanitarian Law and the use of force, form a unique collection of often cited works, used as a foundation for subsequent work in the area.345.25/246

Lawmaking by nonstate actors : engaging armed groups in the creation of international humanitarian law / Anthea Roberts and Sandesh Sivakumaran. - In: Yale journal of international law, Vol. 37, issue 1, 2012, p. 107-152. - PhotocopiesThis article considers whether non-state armed groups can, do and should play a role in the creation of international humanitarian law applicable in non-international armed conflicts.

Focusing on non state armed groups, it is possible to move away from the traditional statist approach to sources, which denies armed groups any role in law creation, without moving to the extreme position of giving such groups complete control over their obligations or equal lawmaking powers with states. To this end, the author suggest various mechanisms (unilateral declarations, hybrid treaties, and possibly quasi-custom) for giving armed groups an opportunity to recognize existing obligations or undertake new ones, while reducing the risk of placing them on par with states or downgrading international humanitarian protections. These mechanisms could provide a way to involve non state armed groups in the creation of international humanitarian law while respecting the crucial and primary role of states.345.2/875 (Br.)

La protección y búsqueda de soluciones duraderas para las personas desplazadas internamente / Cristina Churruca Muguruza. - In: Anuario de acción humanitaria y derechos humanos = Yearbook on humanitarian action and human rights, 9, 2011, p. 15-28. - Bibliographie : p. 26-28Las personas desplazadas internamente son, en esencia, refugiados internos, personas que hubierian sido consideradas refugiadas si hubiesen cruzado una frontera internacional. La preocupación por los derechos humanos de las personas desplazadas se enmarca en el contexto de un creciente reconocimiento de la necesidad de abordar la protección de los civiles en los conflictos armados. Pero hay un gran desconocimiento sobre lo que significa la protección. A partir del análisis del concepto de protección desde un enfoque de derechos se aborda la protección de las PDI. La protección de las PDI, implica en última instancia garantizar que puedan reanudar una vida normal mediante el logro de una solución duradera. Sin embargo aunque ha habido avances normativos y conceptuales en el proceso de búsqueda de soluciones duraderas, el que haya por los menos 40 países con personas en situación de desplazamiento prolongado significa que las PDI siguen marginadas en los procesos de construcción de la paz. Se plantea que hay dificultades conceptuales que explican la escasa atencíon que se ha dado a este problema.

The legality and reciprocity of the war against terrorism / Robbie Sabel. - In: Case western reserve journal of international law, Vol. 43, no. 1&2, 2011, p. 473-482Modern international humanitarian law has no satisfactory solution to the dilemma posed by a regular army in combat with an irregular force that deliberately targets civilians. In the past, the laws of war allowed an army to attack enemy civilians as a reciprocal measure to an attack on its own civilians. Modern humanitarian law has attempted to outlaw such measures of reciprocity. The question is posed as to whether the attempt to outlaw such reciprocity has in fact contributed to the protection of civilians or perhaps has encouraged irregular forces to attack civilians. The article also presents the cruel and arbitrary nature of reciprocal attacks against civilians and suggests that a more humanitarian approach might be to permit such action against the governmental organs controlling irregular forces.345.2/866
