What future for the armed attack criterion? 330 $aThis book examines to what extent the right of self-defence, as laid down in Article 51 of the Charter of the United Nations, permits States to launch military operations against other States. In particular, it focuses on the occurrence of an 'armed attack' - the crucial trigger for the activation of this right. In light of the developments since 9/11, the author analyses relevant physical and verbal customary practice, ranging from the 1974 Definition of Aggression to recent incidents such as the 2001 US intervention in Afghanistan and the 2006 Israeli intervention in Lebanon. The notion of 'armed attack' is examined from a threefold perspective. What acts can be regarded as an 'armed attack'? When can an 'armed attack' be considered to take place? And from whom must an 'armed attack' emanate? By way of conclusion, the different findings are brought together in a draft 'Definition of Armed Attack'. 410 0$aCambridge studies in international and comparative law (Cambridge, England : 1996) ;$v74. 517 3 $a'Armed Attack' & Article 51 of the UN Charter 606 $aSelf-defense (International law) 606 $aAggression (International law) 615 0$aSelf-defense (International law) 615 0$aAggression (International law) 676 $a341.6/2 700 $aRuys$b Tom$0475270 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910458871903321 996 $aArmed attack and Article 51 of the UN Charter$9247346 997 $aUNINA
