'Child soldiers in international law' examines how international law has developed to deal with this problematic and emotive issue. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eHappold looks at the rules restricting the recruitment of children into armed forces - rules which, though important, are often flouted - but also at the wider legal issues arising from child soldiering: to what extent can child soldiers be held criminally liable for their conduct? How should they be treated when captured? How are states obliged to demobilise and reintegrate them into their societies? It also identifies a move away towards enforcement, through the prosecution of those who recruit child soldiers, and proposals for Security Council sanctions against governments and groups who breach their international obligations by using children in armed conflicts. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis study will be essential reading for those concerned with public international law, human rights, and the United Nations and peacekeeping.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Matthew Happold\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0719065860\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780719065866\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Manchester University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/18\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.98lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.50d","brand":"Matthew Happold","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44120111284479,"sku":"9780719065866","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d04937a9-8021-4fd1-8c05-376c77d96f31.jpg?v=1687412612","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/child-soldiers-in-international-law-matthew-happold-9780719065866","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
