The character of contemporary warfare has recently undergone significant transformation in several important respects: the nature of the actors, the changing technological capabilities available to them, and the sites and spaces in which war is fought. These changes have augmented the phenomenon of non-obvious warfare, making understanding warfare one of the key challenges. Such developments have been accompanied by significant flux and uncertainty in the international legal sphere. This handbook brings together a unique blend of expertise, combining scholars and practitioners in science and technology, international law, strategy and policy, in order properly to understand and identify the chief characteristics and features of a range of innovative developments, means and processes in the context of obvious and non-obvious warfare. The handbook has six thematic sections: Law, war and technology. Cyber warfare. Autonomy, robotics and drones. Synthetic biology. New frontiers. International perspectives. %L RQ %K War (International law) %K War %K Technological innovations %K Internationales Recht %K Krieg %K Technologie %K Wandel %K Waffe %K Waffensystem %K Völkerrecht %K Humanitäres Völkerrecht %K Richtlinie %K Regel %K War ; Technological innovations %K Electronic books %K LAW / International %K POLITICAL SCIENCE / Political Freedom & Security / International Security %K POLITICAL SCIENCE / International Relations / General %K Erde %9 Text %9 Electronic books %R 10.4324/9781315111759 %U https://www.taylorfrancis.com/books/e/9781315111759 %U https://www.taylorfrancis.com/books/9781315111759 %U https://doi.org/10.4324/9781315111759
