Recenzje

'Ezequiel Heffes takes his readers on a captivating journey: from academic debates to real-world conflicts, from modern interpretations of international humanitarian and human rights law to case studies on how NSAGs detain in practice. Driven by the desire to use the law to protect people, this book provides excellent insights into the reality of detention by NSAGs and how international law applies - or should apply - to that reality.'
