Technology and the Law on the Use of Force (eBook, ePUB)

New Security Challenges in the Twenty-First Century

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book takes a detailed look at attacks of government information infrastructure and considers their relation to international law on the use of force. Except in cases of self-defence or with the authorisation of a Security Council Resolution, the use of force is prohibited under the UN charter and customary international law. However, the law of jus ad bellum was developed in a pre-digital era where current technological capabilities could not be conceived. Jackson Maogoto asks whether the law on the use of force is able to deal with legal disputes likely to arise from modern warfare.
