Beyond Compliance Symposium – Beyond Typologies of Actors: Ambiguous Boundaries in Non-International Armed Conflicts
The following post by Anastasia Shesterinina focuses on ambiguities in the boundaries between different categories of actors involved in armed conflicts and their implications for efforts to generate and apply clear typologies of actors in research on the lived experiences of conflict, relations between distinct actors, and such outcomes of interest as compliance with international law, which lie at the heart of the Beyond Compliance Consortium’s programme of work. The post was published on Armed Groups and International Law as part of the joint Articles of War and AGIL Beyond Compliance Symposium: How to Prevent Harm and Need in Conflict.
