| Summary: |
Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ESCR) are at risk on the battlefield. Thus, human
rights lawyers must look for legal means to guarantee the best possible protection of these rights in case
of war. It is generally accepted nowadays that both International Humanitarian Law (IHL) and
International Human Rights Law (IHRL) are applicable during armed conflicts. Adding on that and based
on a procedural and substantive legal analysis, this paper claims that both IHL and IHRL constantly
interact in a relation of synergy or norms. |
