Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book, which focuses on international law, explores the positions of enemy merchantmen and prisoners of war and how the laws of war apply to them. By comparing World War 1 methods to warfare tactics of the past, the author critically examines how nations failed to adhere to international law and military customs, and how this impacted outcomes. The discussion of reprisals provides ethical and legal context, arguing that, despite their potential effectiveness, they often involve inflicting suffering on innocent parties. The author goes on to consider the historical and political context of various laws of war, underscoring the value of distinguishing between combatants and non-combatants to minimize suffering and achieve military objectives. Ultimately, the book's insights highlight the ongoing need to balance the demands of military necessity with the protection of human rights in times of war.
