Estimés à près de 250 000, les enfants soldats participant activement à des hostilités constituent un phénomène global qui s'étend à tous les continents. Derrière la froideur des statistiques se profilent pourtant des images effroyables et chaque cas individuel est une tragédie. Comment le droit international permet d'appréhender ce phénomène et peut-il contribuer à y mettre un terme ? De quelle façon le droit international régit-il le recrutement et la participation des enfants soldats aux hostilités ? A quels acteurs du système juridique international s'applique l'interdiction de recruter et d'utiliser des enfants soldats ? Comment le droit international garantit-il le respect de cette interdiction et réprime-t-il ses violations ? Utilisés par les adultes, les enfants soldats peuvent eux-mêmes devenir les auteurs de crimes internationaux. Innocents et responsables à la fois, leur position va à l'encontre même des frontières généralement établies. Comment le droit international appréhende l'identité des enfants soldats : s'agit-il de bourreaux et/ou de victimes ? Le malaise à trancher cette question démontre la tension qui englobe ce problème. Cette analyse démontre toutefois que le droit international ne reste pas silencieux quant à cette problématique. Cet ouvrage détaillé cherche à répondre à ces différentes questions qui se posent au regard du droit international humanitaire et pénal. Magali Maystre tente aussi d'apporter une vision critique sur l'efficacité et les limites du régime juridique international concernant les enfants soldats, qu'elle analyse de manière globale mais précise. Enfin, au-delà du cadre juridique, c'est un problème politique que pointe cet ouvrage. Il ressort de cette analyse que la communauté internationale s'est dotée d'un régime juridique extrêmement complet visant à appréhender le problème des enfants soldats dans sa globalité. Toutefois, une douloureuse dichotomie persiste entre le vaste régime juridique qui existe en la matière et la situation des enfants soldats sur le terrain qui reste grave et inacceptable. Cet ouvrage se veut donc un appel à l'application du droit international en la matière. Les enfants sont l'avenir de l'humanité, il est désormais temps de les libérer de la guerre.

This book considers those aspects of human rights law which may become relevant to the activities of armed forces whether they remain in barracks, undertake training or are deployed in military operations within their own state or outside it. The unique nature of military service and of military courts gives rise to human rights issues in respect both of civilians and soldiers, whether volunteers or conscripts, who find themselves before these courts. Rowe examines these issues as well as the application of international humanitarian law alongside the human rights obligations of the state when forces are training for and involved in armed conflict; where armed forces are deployed in situations of civil disorder; and where states contribute armed forces to multinational forces. An invaluable resource for scholars in human rights, international law and military studies, and anyone concerned with policy relevant to the armed forces.

Under the laws of armed conflict, civilians cannot be targeted unless they take direct part in hostilities. Once civilians take action, they become targets. This book analyses the complex question of how to identify just who those civilians are. Over the past twenty-five years, significant changes in the conduct of wars have increasingly placed civilians in traditional military roles - employing civilians to execute drone strikes, the 'targeted killing' of suspected terrorists, the use of private security contractors in combat zones, and the spread of cyber attacks are amongst some of the most notable. All of these have made the process of distinguishing between civilian and military actors exceptionally fraught. This book examines the history of civilian participation in armed conflict and how the law has responded to such action. It asks the crucial question : what is 'direct participation in hostilities' ? The book slices through the attempts to untie this Gordian knot, and shows that the changing nature of warfare has called into question the very foundation of the civilian/military dichotomy that is at the heart of the law of armed conflict.
