The Laws of War: From the Middle Ages to Today – clip

William Hitchcock / University of Virginia

War is as old as human society. And it is usually barbaric and inhumane. The bombing of cities, the creation of concentration camps, the shooting of POWsโ€”these kinds of horrors were common in World War II, and they are still with us. But alongside ever more destructive means of waging war, there has emerged a body of law designed to shield societies from the worst features of warfare. These codes are known as the laws of war.
