Abstract

Selon le Haut-Commissariat pour les Réfugiés des Nations Unies, le seuil symbolique des 100 millions de personnes contraintes de se déplacer sera atteint à la fin de l'année 2022. La plus grande part se déplace au sein de leur État, mais ce sont malgré tout plus de 30 millions de réfugiés et demandeurs d'asile qui en auront franchi les frontières. La principale cause de ces déplacements est la violence suscitée par les conflits armés. Parmi les premiers pays d'origine, on retrouve ainsi depuis plusieurs décennies l'Afghanistan, l'Irak, la Syrie, la Somalie, les Soudans, l'Éthiopie ou encore l'Érythrée et, en son temps, le Sri-Lanka. Sur le continent européen, les Balkans hier et l'Ukraine aujourd'hui illustrent également l'ampleur des mouvements de population que les conflits armés entraînent systématiquement.

Abstract

"Due to their preponderance and intensity, non-international armed conflicts are currently very much in the public mind: often, more so than international armed conflicts. The present volume serves as a comprehensive introduction to the international legal regime of non-international armed conflicts, proceeding strictly in light of what the contemporary law is (as distinct from what the present author or anybody else would like it to be). Non-international armed conflicts raise a raft of issues that need to be addressed, including in particular their preconditions, thresholds, diverse forms and configurations; the discordant perspectives of the international and domestic legal systems; as well as the application of treaty and customary law to non-State actors. In addition, it is necessary to examine the consequences of intervention by foreign States; the role of the Security Council; the effects of recognition; State responsibility for wrongdoing to the installations, diplomats or nationals of foreign States, etc. The interface between the law of international and non-international armed conflicts is a matter of crucial concern. There are also numerous specific problems, ranging from the complexities of "failing States" to the recruitment and use of child-soldiers"--

Abstract

"State Responsibility for the Support of Armed Groups in the Commission of International Crimes examines the law on attribution of conduct of individuals to states. Under established principles of international law, State responsibility only arises where armed groups act under the direction or control of the State, or are completely dependent on the State. These tests are under inclusive as they do not consider the different ways states can exert control over armed groups in the commission of international crimes. Ramsundar presents an interesting examination into the possibility of liberalization of the rules of State responsibility. The examination considers subtle ways states can exert control over armed groups in the commission of international crimes. Her proposal presents a compelling argument for widening the scope of responsibility to states through useful modifications to interpretation of the tests of control and dependence"
