  • Classical and Political Humanitarianisms in an Era of Military Interventionism and the War on Terror Ambiguity, Prescription, Jus in Bello and Jus Ad Bellum
    journal of international humanitarian legal studies 8 (2017) 33-112 brill.com/ihls Classical and Political Humanitarianisms in an Era of Military Interventionism and the War on Terror Ambiguity, Prescription, Jus in Bello and Jus ad Bellum Matthew Bywater London School of Economics and Political Science graduate [email protected] Abstract This paper scrutinises the modus operandi of classical and political humanitarianism: the use of ambiguity and prescription to frame calls for international action to protect civilians, and public commentary on jus in bello and jus ad bellum. It does so by in- novatively considering the perspectives of belligerents alongside those of humanitar- ian actors, so as to identify how belligerents have responded to the two humanitarian modus operandi, and to ascertain the connection of humanitarian actors to the wars and international military interventions that they have implicitly or explicitly called for or endorsed. The paper finds that the response of belligerents differs from what both classical and political humanitarians expect. Even where humanitarians maintain am- biguity, the intention to will military action remains present and even the documenta- tion and reporting of violence will bolster military intervention. Such consequences will be perceptible to belligerents, who may restrict humanitarian space. When hu- manitarians advance jus ad bellum perspectives, the humanitarian identity envisioned by classicists is not necessarily compromised. But belligerents are positively influenced by such perspectives only when those perspectives coincide with their own position. Keywords humanitarianism – humanitarian action – military intervention – war – témoignage – speaking out – advocacy – perceptions – belligerents The historical period since the end of the Cold War has been a particularly tumultuous one for the humanitarian community.

  • War and Media: Constancy and Convulsion
