Less-Lethal Weapons under International Law
Hitherto 'less-lethal' weapons, in contrast to classical firearms and other highly destructive weapons, have literally slipped under the radar of public international law. This book is the first monograph addressing and analysing all international legal regimes applicable to less-lethal weapons, ranging from arms control treaties, international humanitarian, criminal and human rights law. In doing so the different scenarios in which less-lethal weapons come to use will be taken into account, such as law enforcement, armed conflict and law enforcement scenarios during armed conflict. The relationships between the different legal regimes will be elaborated thoroughly with a view to examining how international law responds to less-lethal weapons. The final chapter provides guidelines as well as recommendations on appropriate use and regulation of less-lethal weapons, where the different scenarios of application, such as in armed conflict and law enforcement, will be given due account.
The AI Military Race
In The AI Military Race, Denise Garcia examines the complexities entailed in creating a global framework to govern the military use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) by proposing inclusive and humane ways to forge cooperation. Three novel humanist conceptions are introduced: common good governance, transnational networked cooperation, and humanity's security. This academic volume is the first to survey the threats to peace in the shifting world order by investigating the current patterns and trends in the global use of, and investment in, militarizing AI and the development of autonomous systems. Garcia weaves in an insider participant-observer focus on the decade-long high-level diplomatic at...

The Incoherence of Human Rights in International Law
Incoherence is a term that is all too often associated with the public international law regime. To a great extent, its incoherence is arguably a natural consequence of the fragmented nature of both the development and overall scope of the discipline. Despite significant achievements since the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (1948), a coherent human rights regime that is properly integrated with other branches of public international law is still lacking. This book explores this incoherent approach to human rights, including specific challenges that arise as a result of the creation and regulation of legal relationships between parties (state and non-state) that sit outside of the huma...
The Impact of Military
In an often violent and dangerous world military defense systems exercise a major role in the ways societies and nations function, develop their aspirations, protect themselves, promote their identities and shape their destinies. As we are only too aware at this time in global history, conflict, war and peace are deeply entangled and often morally ambiguous. This timely volume of essays offers contributions from Europe, Africa and Australia. It raises fundamental issues about the indispensability of the virtues in the military; the relationship between military and the public good; the nature of combatants and a soldier's responsibilities for humanity and peace; moral and spiritual injury; and new challenges for pastoral care in the armed forces.
Data Protection and Interoperability in EU External Relations
This book assesses whether the implementation of transborder interoperable solutions aligns with the European Union's standards and rules on personal data transfer. It specifically examines the principles and values enshrined in the founding Treaties that steer the EU’s external activities as a global actor. It will help you understand the privacy and data protection standards the EU must uphold when pursuing its objectives of freedom, security, and justice externally. You’ll learn about the limits on the processing of personal data by large-scale IT systems in the area of freedom, security, and justice, and explore the full scope of the 2019 interoperability regulations, n. 817 and 818. Also, the volume offers a series of diagrams, tables, and figures that will make your reading as smooth as possible.
Deutschlands Verteidigungspolitik
Nach dem Angriffskrieg Russlands auf die Ukraine kündigte Bundeskanzler Olaf Scholz eine Zeitenwende in der deutschen Außen-, Sicherheits- und Verteidigungspolitik an. Ein epochaler Umbruch stellt Politik und Gesellschaft vor die Herausforderung, sich mit einer seit dem Ende des Kalten Krieges größtenteils vernachlässigten Thematik auseinanderzusetzen: der nationalen Sicherheit und der Verteidigung Deutschlands mit militärischen Mitteln. Malte Riemann und Georg Löfflmann haben Beiträge verschiedener ExpertInnen versammelt. Die kompakte Einführung beleuchtet das Thema aus unterschiedlichen Perspektiven der Friedens-, Konflikt- und Sicherheitsforschung. Dabei werden konzeptionelle Ansätze vorgestellt, um die strategischen Herausforderungen für Deutschland und seine Rolle in Europa und der Welt einzuordnen und sichtbar zu machen.
Digitale Aktanten, Hybride, Schwärme
Wer trägt das Risiko, wenn künstlicher Intelligenz – etwa ChatGPT – schadensträchtige Fehler unterlaufen? Wenn die beteiligten Menschen sorgfältig gehandelt haben, haftet nach geltendem Recht – niemand. Um dieser gravierenden Verantwortungslücke zu begegnen, entwerfen Anna Beckers und Gunther Teubner drei rechtliche Haftungsregime, für die sie Erkenntnisse aus der Soziologie sowie der Moral- und der Technikphilosophie heranziehen: Prinzipal-Agenten-Haftung für Handlungen autonomer Software-Agenten (»Aktanten«), Netzwerkhaftung für verdichtete Mensch-KI-Interaktionen (»Hybride«) und fondbasierte Entschädigung für vernetzte KI-Systeme (»Schwärme«). Ein bahnbrechender Lösungsvorschlag für eine hochaktuelle Problematik.
