International humanitarian law protects against unlawful confinement only in international armed conflict. And yet most of unlawful detentions arise as governments and armed groups resort to violence in over 65% of armed conflicts today that are not of an international character. Where do we draw the line and how can international law better serve our right to liberty in contemporary armed conflicts? A captivating and brutally honest book that sheds the light on the plight of millions across nations. This book has won the 2022 Francis Lieber prize, awarded at ASIL, for the best monograph published on the law of armed conflict.
