HAGUE ACADEMY OF INTERNATIONAL LAW
A collection of law lectures in pocketbook form
Professor Dr.iur. Dr.rer.publ.h.c. Daniel
Thürer, LL.M.
(Cambridge), is Director of
the Institute of Public International Law at
the University of Zurich. He is also a mem¬
ber of the International Committee of the
Red Cross, Permanent Court of Arbitration,
and the
Institut de
droit
international.
Daniel
Thürer
represents Switzerland at the
European Commission against Racism and
Intolerance, and he is also the President of
the German Society of International Law.
This book is about international humanitarian law or
—
as it is also
called
—
the law of armed conflict or law of war . It emerged from
a series of lectures delivered at the Hague Academy of International
Law. Daniel Thiirer deals with war and the means by which international
law attempts to contain and, as it were, humanize organized violence.
But the ambitions of the author go beyond the battlefield. The book
explores the many complex ways in which law functions to regulate
warfare, in theory and in practice. The author looks into treaties and
other sources of international law, but he also tries to step outside the
boundaries of black-letter law to deal broadly with such matters as
the influence of culture in shaping the norms on war, the institutions that
develop those norms and work for their universal acceptance, the
networks of humanitarian actors in this area and the legal procedures
in which the law of war and its various institutions are embedded. The
book demonstrates that even wars are, in various ways, conducted in
the shadow of the law .
