The author convincingly demonstrates, contrary to convention, that in addition to the ICRC, the National Societies and the IFRC, numerous other NGOs referenced in humanitarian law treaties have a legal status in IHL and therefore legitimate claim to employ IHL provisions to respond to current challenges. On the basis of clear and thorough definitions of these entities, Barrat argues that existing NGOs meeting stringent definition can benefit from customary rights and obligations in both international and non-international armed conflict.Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies (Series) ;Volume 14.Non-governmental organizationsLaw and legislationHumanitarian lawNon-governmental organizationsLaw and legislation.Humanitarian law.341.6/7Barrat Claudie1118968Abi-Saab GeorgesMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910816832203321Status of NGOs in international humanitarian law2647171UNINA
