{"product_id":"rebel-courts-ren-provost-9780190912222","title":"Rebel Courts: The Administration of Justice by Armed Insurgents","description":"Warzones are sometimes described as lawless, but this is rarely the case. Armed insurgents often replace the state as the provider of law and justice in areas under their authority. Based on extensive fieldwork, \u003cem\u003eRebel Courts\u003c\/em\u003e offers a compelling and unique insight into the judicial governance of armed groups, a phenomenon never studied comprehensively until now. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eUsing a series of detailed case studies of non-state armed groups in a diverse range of conflict situations, including the FARC (Colombia), Islamic State (Syria and Iraq), Taliban (Afghanistan), Tamil Tigers (Sri Lanka), PKK (Turkey), PYD (Syria), and KRG (Iraq), \u003cem\u003eRebel Courts\u003c\/em\u003e argues that it is possible for non-state armed groups to legally establish and operate a system of courts to administer justice. Rules of public international law that regulate the conduct of war can be interpreted as authorising the establishment of rebel courts by armed groups. When operating in a manner consistent with due process, rebel courts demand a certain degree of recognition by international states, institutions, and even other non-state armed groups. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWith legal analysis enriched by insights from other disciplines, \u003cem\u003eRebel Courts\u003c\/em\u003e is a must read for all scholars and professionals interested in law, justice, and the effectiveness of global legal standards in situations of armed conflict.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e René Provost\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0190912227\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780190912222\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/20\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 488\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.40h x 6.40w x 1.40d","brand":"René Provost","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43988474200319,"sku":"9780190912222","price":165.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e842fc69-9336-4ddd-a6e0-33321b60fbf9.jpg?v=1683294684","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/rebel-courts-ren-provost-9780190912222","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
