Résumé
What if the laws of war could be obeyed not out of fear of punishment, but from an inner call to remain human?Humanizing Warfare takes you on a journey through armed conflicts across the globe-from the battlefields of Sudan, Syria, Ukraine, and Colombia to the refugee camps of Germany and the maritime disputes of the South China Sea. This book compiles and analyzes the most pressing challenges facing International Humanitarian Law (IHL) today: hybrid actors like maritime militias, the weaponization of displacement, the psychological trauma of refugees, the politics of casualty counting, and the disruptive rise of civilian hackers and autonomous weapons.
But this is not merely a technical manual. At its heart, this book introduces a radical yet ancient idea from the Minahasan region of eastern Indonesia: Sitou Timou Tumou Tou-"humans live to humanize others." Formulated by the Indonesian national hero and mathematician Dr. Sam Ratulangi, this philosophy offers a new moral foundation for IHL. It argues that my own humanity depends on my treatment of the enemy.
To dehumanize the other is to destroy the self. Written by a young Indonesian law student who grew up close to the internal security disturbances in Papua, this book bridges the gap between Western legal positivism and Global South epistemologies. It challenges the dominant "ethics of restraint" and proposes instead an "ethics of identity." By reframing compliance with IHL as an existential necessity rather than an external obligation, Humanizing Warfare seeks to rescue the laws of war from the paralysis of modern armed conflict.
Perfect for: students and scholars of international law, humanitarian practitioners, military personnel, policymakers, and anyone who believes that even war has limits.
