About this ebook:
This book offers a gendered critique of the 'principle of distinction' in international humanitarian law, with a focus on recent conflicts in Africa.The principle of distinction is one of the core foundational principles of IHL and regulates who can and cannot be targeted in hostilities, stating that civilians may not be targeted in attack, while combatants and those civilians directly participating in hostilities may be targeted. It defines what it means to be a combatant and civilian, what behaviour constitutes direct participation, and the obligations and rights that come with belonging to each category. The principle purports to be gender-neutral, applying equally to men and women. However, closer examination reveals that the principle is based on a historically gendered view of conflict, one that envisaged men and women playing particular roles - men being fighters and women being victims of war. To an ever-greater extent, this view does not accord with the realities of conflict today, in which women are playing increasingly active roles. In conflicts across Africa - as around the world - women take part in fighting groups. While sometimes women fight at the front lines, as men would, frequently women contribute to armed movements in gender-specific ways, often shaped by cultural norms around appropriate behaviour for women.Using women's participation in Africa's 'new wars' as a case study, this book critically examines the principle of distinction through a gendered lens. It applies the principle to women participating in a range of ways in African conflicts, seeking to see how different women would be classified by the law - who would be civilian, combatant or direct participant - and thereby, what protection, obligations and status such women would have. In doing this, the book questions whether the principle of distinction contains provisions that effectively encompass the roles played by women in modern African conflicts, or rather whether the laws fail to reflect the gendered reality of conflict, thereby failing to adequately regulate modern hostilities. The study of women is used to question whether the principle of distinction remains suitable to regulate the conduct of hostilities in new wars more broadly, or rather, the extent to which it fails in this crucial role.This book will be of much interest to students of international law, gender studies, African politics, war and conflict studies, and International Relations.

It was adequate. It possessed moments of brilliance, but the narrative felt slightly disjointed ultimately. Perhaps more aligned with a different audience's tastes.
