Human rights do not cease to exist during war, although often under particular threat at that time or simply ignored on the basis of military necessity. From 1864 onwards, it was accepted that there was a category of persons whose rights as human being must be respected and protected in time of war, and that to ensure such respect and protection was the duty of states under international law. This book presents the human rights related to the civilians, wounded and sick armed forces, nuclear war victims, prisoners of war, and victims of international armed conflicts through several conventions. The text will be of immense interest and value to the students, teachers and human rights activists.
