International Institute of Humanitarian Law

Non-State Actors and International Humanitarian Law.

Organized armed groups: a challenge for the 21st century

In a security landscape characterised by the changing nature of armed conflicts and the proliferation of non-state actors, the problem of the applicability and enforcement of international humanitarian law poses a number of new controversial issues and fundamental challenges. Difficulties arise in clarifying the very notion of non-state actors; in defining whether and when they are parties to an armed conflict; in ensuring their adherence to relevant principles and rules of international humanitarian law; in preventing, prosecuting and sanctioning violations.

Informazioni sugli e-book

The book collects a series of contributions by well known scholars and practitioners on the problem of the applicability of International Humanitarian Law and Human Rights to the increasing number of Non-State Actors involved in contemporary armed conflicts.
The notion of Non-State Actors is a very broad notion in which Non Governmental Organizations, Private Military Companies, but also rebels, terrorist groups, sea pirates are included.
A wide spectrum of issues - including the questions of accountability of Non-State Actors and of the affordability of initiatives which could lead organized armed groups to abide by the existing international norms - are extensively explored not only from a strictly legal perspective.

The International Institute of Humanitarian Law is an independent, non-profit humanitarian organisation founded in 1970. Its headquarters are situated in Villa Ormond, Sanremo (Italy). Its main objective is the promotion and dissemination of international humanitarian law, human rights, refugee law and migration law. Thanks to its longstanding experience and its internationally acknowledged academic standards, the International Institute of Humanitarian Law is considered a centre of excellence and has developed close co-operation with the most important International Organizations. Forty years of meetings and intense academic activity addressing the main topics of humanitarian law, under the auspices of the Institute, have created what has universally become known as "humanitarian dialogue in the spirit of Sanremo".
