<p>This volume commemorates the centenary of the First
World War (1914-2014) and aims to capture 100 years of warfare evolution. Among
the main issues addressed are the changing nature of means and methods of
warfare, the law of weaponry, and challenges to humanitarian assistance and
protection of the civilian population affected by armed conflict. Specific
topics include the legal regime governing nuclear weapons, the prohibition of
chemical weapons and arms control, the evolution of naval warfare, asymmetric
conflicts, the law of occupation and cultural property. A comprehensive&nbsp;<i>Year in Review&nbsp;</i>also describes the
most important events and legal developments that took place in 2014.</p>

<p>The <i>Yearbook of
International Humanitarian Law</i> is the world's only annual publication
devoted to the study of the laws governing armed conflict. It provides a truly
international forum for high-quality, peer-reviewed academic articles focusing

relevance, the <i>Yearbook of International
Humanitarian La</i>w bridges the gap between theory and practice and serves as
a useful reference tool for scholars, practitioners, military personnel, civil
servants, diplomats, human rights workers and students.</p>
