Abstract

The various international treaties governing armed conflicts date from different periods: the main Hague Conventions from 1907, the most recent Geneva Conventions and the Hague Cultural Property Convention from 1949 and 1954, the protocols additional to the Geneva Conventions, and the conventions on certain conventional weapons from 1977 and 1980. These various law of war treaties thus reflect the needs, concepts, circumstances, and language of their times. As a consequence of the growing complexity of modern armed conflicts, the law of war is also becoming more and more complicated.
