Description
The study of jus post bellum is a burgeoning area of scholarship within the fields of international relations and international law, reflecting an implicit understanding that states’ moral obligations to those caught up in conflict do not cease once they have left the battlefield. This panel seeks to further expand on this flourishing area of literature, taking a broad approach to the post bellum period, encapsulating both states’ legal and ethical duties following the conclusion of conflict, as well as those which are triggered by combatants excised from the battle whilst fighting is still underway.
