Complex Battlespaces: The Law of Armed Conflict and the Dynamics of Modern Warfare Audiobook (Free)

The conduct of warfare is constantly shaped by brand-new forces that induce complexities in the battlespace for armed forces operations. As the nature of how and where wars are fought adjustments, new challenges to the application of the extant body of international law that regulates armed conflicts arise.This inaugural level of the Lieber Studies series seeks to address several issues in the confluence of law and armed conflict, with the primary goal of providing the listener with both academic and practitioner perspectives.

Offering chapters from top notch scholars, policymakers and other government officials; armed forces and civilian legal practitioners; and other idea leaders, collectively they examine the role of the law of armed conflict in current and potential armed conflicts all over the world. Organic Battlespaces also explores several types of battlespace dynamics through four ‘lenses of intricacy’: difficulty in legal regimes, governance, technology, as well as the urbanization of the battlefield.
