4 CONCEPT NOTE The justification for and legality of commencing hostilities is governed by jus ad bellum principles, which lie outside the scope of international humanitarian law, traditionally known as jus in bello. International humanitarian law addresses both the conduct of armed forces military and the protection of non-combatants. Although historically restricted to international conflicts, since the end of World War II, IHL increasingly applies to non-international conflicts. Nonetheless, the classification of armed conflicts remains important because different rules apply to international and non-international conflicts. Despite being a discreet subject of public international law, international humanitarian law also intersects with human rights law and international criminal law. As the nature of warfare and weapons has changed, international humanitarian law has also developed stronger ties to human rights law and other branches of international law. Even though the widespread acceptance of this long histories of international humanitarian law, both the term international humanitarian law and the particular conceptualization of the jus in bello that it evokes are fairly new. Prior to the 1960s, the term international humanitarian law was not used to describe a field of law, and even when the term started to be used in the 1960s it still denoted quite a different understanding of the law to its current incarnation. Before this period, common and academic usage referred international humanitarian law as laws of war and later, in the 1960s, to the laws of armed conflict in an attempt to comprehend de facto and internal conflicts. The laws of war or armed conflict was not just a different nomenclature for the same type of law. Rather, it was an appropriate title for a different concept of law and different rules. The laws of war were the rules of the Law of Nations respecting warfare. These rules, as various editions of Oppenheim s International Law repeated throughout the first half of the 20th century, contained, as their first principle, the idea that a belligerent is justified in applying any amount and any kind of force which is necessary for the realization of the purpose of war namely, the overpowering of the opponent. The second principle of the law of war, Oppenheim s International Law continues, is the principle of humanity, which holds that unnecessary forms of violence violence that is not essential for the defeat of a belligerent are not permitted. Thus, two principal branches of international humanitarian law gained momentum after 1960s: the Hague Law," involving the regulation of weaponry and the selection of military targets, and "Geneva Law," covering the treatment of POWs, detainees, civilians, and humanitarian aid workers.
