- W2611629374 abstract "I am honored to deliver this Lecture in honor of Randolph W. Thrower, a lawyer of great distinction and integrity. It is also my pleasure to open this important symposium on redefined national security threats. This symposium explores tensions, complementarities, and legal implications of three rapidly evolving areas of national security: cybersecurity, new technologies, and crossborder security.I propose to talk today about umbrella issue that spans all of these topics: emerging law of twenty-first century war. I bring to this discussion four different perspectives: thirty-five years as an international law professor, twenty years as a human rights lawyer, ten years in U.S. government, and five years as a law school dean. In each of these roles, I have focused on and substance of what I will call in shorthand transnational legal process and transnational legal substance. By transnational legal process, I mean complex of interaction, interpretation, and norm-internalization by which law is made in twenty-first century.1 By transnational legal substance, I mean substantive law that emerges from that complex interactive process.2The core idea that drives this transnationalist jurisprudence is that international law and domestic law are no longer artificially divided. The substance that is emerging is a body of hybrid, transnational public law, rooted in shared public norms that have a similar meaning in every national system around world. There are certain hybrid concepts, like metric system or term dot.com, that are not clearly either international or domestic in character. In same way, ideas of cruel, inhuman, or degrading treatment, civil society, internally displaced, and transborder trafficking are now public law concepts, inasmuch as they now have a shared meaning in every domestic legal system.In many ways, most discussed, but least understood, of these evolving bodies of public law is emerging law of armed conflict. This lecture asks: What exactly is emerging law of twenty-first century war? That question breaks into three, which organize this lecture. First, what basic rules govern these twenty-first century tools? Second, what principles of law are emerging in particular areas of modern armed conflict, namely, interrogation, detention, special operations, drones, robots, cyber war, and private security contractors? Third, how are these emerging law of principles implicated by great crisis of today, Syria, which raises such intertwined issues as mass migration, humanitarian intervention (or Responsibility to Protect R2P),3 and crime of aggression?I. The Basic RulesIn recent years, a whole new range of tools have emerged to address exigencies of twenty-first century war, among them cyber conflict, drones, special operations, private security contractors, and semi-autonomous robots. But to what extent are these modern tools of governed by law at all? Centuries ago, Cicero famously wrote, silent enim leges inter arma, namely, in wartime when arms speak, laws fall silent.4 But is this really true with respect to twenty-first century armed conflict?After September 11, 2001, many asked a modern variant of Cicero, what I call the Tina Turner question: law got to do with it? What's but a sweet old-fashioned notion? Because, in one scholar's ironic words, this was a war like no other,5 some suggested such an existential crisis demanded that law be abandoned. One argument sometimes heard was that rapid changes in way we conduct modern against Al Qaeda and its associated forces- for example, Guantanamo, military commissions, or cyber war-should be evaluated in a black hole, or law-free zone, because there can be no law to apply to military tactics and technologies that never previously existed. …" @default.
