Recenzje

'In short, this collection features high-quality contributions from all the contributors. Read together with the more recently published Guidelines No 12, its individual chapters go a long way to overcoming the 'war flaw' and providing a new framework for understanding armed conflict cases.' Hugo Storey, International Journal of Refugee Law
