Professor Andrew Clapham of the Geneva Graduate Institute is a leading expert in the interplay of war and international law. In his timely new book "War," Clapham explores the modern relevance of the concept of war and how it shapes our understanding of rights and obligations in both national and international law, questioning whether the declaration of war can justify actions otherwise deemed illegal. In this interview, conducted by former JURIST Deputy Executive Director Akshita Tiwary, Clapham shares his expert perspectives on the evolving nature of the laws of war, the challenges of enforcing international humanitarian law, and the role of international institutions in maintaining global peace and security. He also discusses contemporary issues such as cyber warfare, the legal implications of drone strikes, and the importance of protecting human rights in conflict zones.
