In its first edition this book already became a leading resource in the field, and the second edition will be no different. It does not aim to comprehensively cover all of IHL, but focuses on issues and controversies of greatest contemporary relevance, with a remarkable degree of rigour, precision, and clarity.’ – Marko Milanovic, University of Reading, UK ‘The return of an instant classic. As a leading expert in the field, Marco Sassòli maintains the fine and difficult balance between making IHL accessible to those that are unfamiliar with it, while offering a nuanced analysis which will satisfy its experts. A must read for everyone who is working on or is interested in IHL.’ – Vaios Koutroulis, Université Libre de Bruxelles, Belgium 2024 796 pp Hardback 978 1 80088 690 2 £180.00 / $252.00 May 2025 Paperback 978 1 0353 6821 1 £49.95 / $69.95 eBook • Elgaronline Principles of International Law series Women and War Economies Orly Maya Stern, Consultant to the UN, South Africa This pioneering book examines the experiences of women in war economies, analyzing their roles as actors, perpetrators, collaborators and victims of wartime crime.

The social utility of universities and their departments has come under scrutiny before but to date there has not been an in-depth examination of the purpose of law schools beyond the extent to which they produce those who may later pursue legal careers. What role they can play in terms of societal engagement and the advancement of legal education more generally is carefully and comprehensively addressed including examples of how that might and can be delivered.’ – Richard Grimes, Charles University, Czech Republic May 2025 c 246 pp Hardback 978 1 0353 4237 2 £95.00 / $135.00 eBook • Elgaronline Elgar Studies in Legal Education An International Human Rights Law of Cooperation International Cooperation, State Responsibility and the European Convention on Human Rights Prisca Feihle, Freie Universität Berlin, Germany ‘In her comprehensive and thought-provoking monograph, Prisca Feihle demonstrates how international cooperation risks undermining human rights standards in some cases while other situations require cooperation between states to realize the promise of human rights.
