Description
About the Book
Colonial legal frameworks were designed by Europeans, for Europeans. This monograph, utilising State practice, demonstrates the breadth and depth of customary colonial laws of war in the Age of Empire and higlights areas of criminal liability.Book Synopsis
The 'original sin' of the laws of war - its exclusion of non-Europeans from its protection - shapes discussions around criminal liability for conduct during colonial expansion. This monograph disproves this position however, utilising State practice across various colonial frontiers that fell to Pax Britannica.
