Short description:

New technologies, new geopolitical alignments, new interests and vulnerabilities, and other developments are changing how, why, and by whom conflict will be waged. The Future Law of Armed Conflict considers how law and institutions for creating, interpreting, and enforcing the law of armed conflict might look two decades ahead - as well as what opportunities may exist to influence it in that time. This book brings together a diverse set of voices to debate questions that are likely to emerge, and consider possible futures.

Long description:
Warfare is changing - and rapidly. New technologies, new geopolitical alignments, new interests and vulnerabilities, and other developments are changing how, why, and by whom conflict will be waged. Just as militaries must plan ahead for an environment in which threats, alliances, capabilities, and even the domains in which they fight will differ from today, they must plan for international legal constraints that may differ, too.

This volume considers how law and institutions for creating, interpreting, and enforcing it might look two decades ahead - as well as what opportunities may exist to influence it in that time. Such assessment is important as the U.S. and other governments plan for future warfare. It is also important as they formulate strategies for influencing the development of law to better serve security, humanitarian, and other interests. This volume examines not just specific questions, such as how might a particular technology require adaptive interpretation of existing law, but also grand ones, such as whether law is capable at all of keeping up with these changes.

This volume can be recommended to anyone engaged with LOAC as a Legal Advisor or researcher and intending to continue to do so over the coming years.
