“…Most prominently, a series of speci c treaties prohibiting particular weapons has been adopted under the framework of the umbrella agreement of the Excessively Injurious or to Have Indiscriminate E ects. 38 Under this framework agreement, a series of "protocols" have subsequently been adopted separately, notably related to non-detectable fragments 39 ; the use of mines, booby-traps and other devices 40 ; the use of incendiary weapons 41 ; blinding laser weapons, 42 and explosive remnants of war. 43 As previously indicated, for each of these instruments, it is crucial to carefully assess the way the weapon concerned is de ned.…”

Intersentia 305 CHAPTER 9 MEANS AND METHODS OF WARFARE B D and Tom R *e present chapter summarily eshes out the substantive implications of what AP I labels, in Article 35, one of the basic rules when it comes to " means and methods of warfare": "In any armed con ict, the right of the Parties to the con ict to choose methods or means of warfare is not unlimited". 1 Section 1 of the present chapter deals with the basic principles underpinning the legal framework applicable to "means of warfare", whereas section 2 deals with a number of "methods of warfare". While neither concept is authoritatively de ned in treaty law, there is consensus that the concept of "means" of warfare refers to weapons, as well as weapons launch and delivery systems. 2 By contrast, the concept of "methods" of warfare, generally refers to particular tactics resorted to in warfare, including the modalities according to which a belligerent party employs the weapons at its disposal. 3 Historically, this part of the law of armed con ict squarely belongs to the so-called "law of the Hague", i.e. rules regulating military operations among combatants, and proscribing how combatants are entitled to conduct hostilities. In short: how does the law of armed con ict conceive of a lawful ght between the parties to the con ict? * e views expressed in this article are strictly personal to the authors. e usual disclaimers apply.1
