レビュー
出版社によるあらすじ
[Q]uite possibly, the most important single-author IHL monograph written in many years. Watkins book is firmly rooted in a sophisticated and almost exhaustive analysis of the relevant facts and law. The authors depth of experience as a practitioner of holistic operational law is evident on every page. This book is outstanding and one hopes it will be widely read and thought about."- * William Fenrick, Lawfare * Ken Watkin has combined the pragmatism and realism that marked out his successful career as a military lawyer, a compendious knowledge and understanding of contemporary security threats and operations and impressive scholarship to produce a comprehensive, insightful and compelling assessment of the legal challenges that currently confront those charged in this century with maintaining national and international security. This is a highly authoritative monumentaltreatise that combines wisdom, law, operational experience and common sense, and which is deserving of a wide readership. By taking the discussion beyond the confines of the law and embracing wider operational, policy and doctrinal issues, the book should appeal to a broad audience. . . indeed to anyonewith an interest in getting to the bottom of what is driving current security concerns and operations. * William Boothby, International and Comparative Law Quarterly * Watkin's book can be seen both as a work of operational law and a major scholarly treatment of the law governing the use of force. It provides detailed accounts of how situations arise on the ground that evade easy classification in terms of our existing conceptual and legal categories. These will provide vivid instruction for those not familiar with the reality of modern military operations. At the same time, it furnishes a valuable framework for analyzing thefeatures of such operations that are relevant in assessing how force should be used in particular scenarios. Finally, Watkin offers a set of principles for both operational law and broader policy decisions to help navigate the complex terrain of modern security challenges. * Mitt Regan, Georgetown University Law Center, Journal of National Security Law & Policy * 続きを読む
