Providing up-to-date discussions of both evolving and novel debates in human rights law and humanitarian law, this timely new edition of the Research Handbook on Human Rights and Humanitarian Law complements, rather than replaces, its predecessor with fresh perspectives from leading scholars on the controversial and crucial topics within these fields. Examining the application of international law to armed conflict situations, chapters present cutting-edge research and contemporary reflections on surrounding issues that have evolved and emerged in recent years.

‘An essential Research Handbook examining some of the most relevant contemporary legal problems, assembling some of the leading figures in the field.’
