Elgar Research Agendas outline the future of research in each area. Leading scholars are given the space to explore their subject in provocative ways and map out the potential directions of travel. They are relevant but also visionary.

This prescient Research Agenda sheds light on current and expected developments of military law. It provides expert guidance on the application of international law to military operations and assesses new challenges such as AI, hybrid warfare and the militarization of outer space.


/
Using legal doctrinal and analytical methods, leading scholars and practitioners in the field survey the current legal landscape, providing a forward-looking analysis of emerging issues and future research. The book examines how international law regulates the use and application of armed force or coercive measures by the armed forces of States and other international actors in an armed conflict or in a ‘grey zone’ pre-conflict setting. Chapters interrogate the functions and rules of the different bodies of international law that govern the conduct of warfare. They also indicate where fault lines lie, and explore how developments in technology and the strategic environment can affect how the law is interpreted and applied.



A Research Agenda for Military Law is an essential resource for academics and students in the fields of international and humanitarian law. Legal advisors in the armed forces and governmental service will also benefit from the book's authoritative analysis of military law.
