摘要
国际人道法,是由条约或习惯所组成,其目的在于保护那些不参加或不再参加武装冲突的人员,以及出于人道的目的。对武装冲突中的有关方面在作战方法和手段进行限制的国际规则的总称。国际人道法的罪行,已被认为是国际法中的"核心罪行",同时也构成了联合国前南斯拉夫国际刑事法庭、卢旺达国际刑事法庭和2002年7月1日成立的将对国际法和国际关系产生深远影响的国际刑事法院的"实体管辖"。尽管国际人道法有其重要性和法律上的实践性,但遗憾的是,我国对这一法律问题的研究还处于起步阶段。本文通过对国际人道法基本内容的阐述,希望能推动我国法学界对国际人道法进行深入探讨和研究。
International humanitarian law can be defined as the international rules which are established by treaties or customs for the purpose to protect all who do not(or no longer)take part in armed conflict,whether'internal'or'international'by nature, and which,for humanitarian reasons,limit the rights of parties to an armed conflict to use the methods and means of warfare of their choice.The crimes of international hu- manitarian law are regarded as'core crimes'under international law,which are actually defined as'subject-matter jurisdiction'for the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia,the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda as well as for the International Criminal Court which was established on July 1,2002 and will have great impact upon the international law and to the international relations.Though interna- tional humanitarian law is important and particular as a branch of law,it is unfortunate- ly not weU-know in China.The author stresses that because of its practical significance, China's academy must pay attention to and try to strengthen its research and education on international humanitarian law.
