This book conducts the first ever comprehensive study of the ICRC's interpretations and law-ascertainments. It analyses in detail their impact on the development of international humanitarian law and international law in general as well as the reasons for their impact. This analysis involves the discussion of the ICRC's authority. Is it legal or just factual authority? The analysis also illuminates the direction that IHL - and international law in general - develops. This insight sheds light on the question of the current type of international law, i.e., what international law is and who makes it

Räume begrenzter Staatlichkeit, in denen der Territorialstaat seine Hoheitsgewalt nicht mehr oder nur noch eingeschränkt auszuüben vermag, stellen das humanitäre Völkerrecht vor vielfältige Herausforderungen. Der Tagungsband widmet sich der Frage, ob und wie das Recht sich diesen Herausforderungen anpasst, maßgeblich anhand zweier Themenkomplexe: der Inhaftierung und dem Investitionsschutz im (nicht-)internationalen bewaffneten Konflikt. Existiert eine hinreichende Rechtsgrundlage für erstere? Ist zur Ausfüllung des investitionsrechtlichen full protection and security-Standards das humanitäre Völkerrecht maßgeblich?Die Beiträge erschöpfen sich jedoch nicht in solchen dogmatischen Erörterungen. Vielmehr betrachten sie die Problematik auch aus einer grundsätzlichen Perspektive. Diese fragt – rechtstheoretisch und -historisch informiert – nach den Voraussetzungen für die Leistungsfähigkeit des Völkerrechts in Räumen begrenzter Staatlichkeit – gerade auch gegenüber nicht-staatlichen Akteuren. Kann das Recht Anreize für seine Befolgung setzen? Muss es weiterentwickelt werden? Falls ja, wer ist hierzu berufen und legitimiert?
Areas of limited statehood, in which the territorial State lacks effective control, either completely or in part, challenge International Humanitarian Law in various ways. This volume explores if and how the law adapts to these challenges on the basis of mainly two legal issues: detention and investment protection in (non-)international armed conflict. Does a sufficient legal basis exist for the former? Is it International Humanitarian Law that determines what the investor is owed under a 'full protection and security' standard?
More fundamentally, the contributions strive to shed light on these practical legal issues in a manner that is also historically and theoretically informed. How can international law be effective in areas of limited statehood, in particular as regards non-State actors? Can the law provide incentives for compliance? Is it in need of being developed? If so, who enjoys the legitimacy to do so?
