The monograph also gives insights on the legal mechanisms open to individuals and communities after a conflict. Practice of international organizations and judicial decisions are examined in order to define the contours of the norms dealing with armed conflicts and post-conflict situations.   Beyond international humanitarian law, the author suggests that other areas of international law should be taken into account such as human rights law and international water law. This comprehensive view aims at preventing damage to water resources and ensuring access to safe drinking water. Given the fragmentation of instruments and norms dealing with water in times of armed conflicts, it requires an in-depth examination of what means of international law may be developed to ensure a better protection to water.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction A. \tThe Protection of Water under International Humanitarian Law I. \tThe Protection of Access to Water 1. \tThe Protection of Objects Indispensable to the Survival of the Civilian Population 2. \tThe Prohibition on Attacking Works and Installations Containing Dangerous Forces II. \tWater and Environmental Protection Under International Humanitarian Law 1. \tThe Environment as a Civilian Object 2. \tThe Prohibition on Causing Widespread, Long-Term and Severe Impacts on the Environment in Times of Armed Conflict III.\tGeneral Principles of International Humanitarian Law and the Protection of Water Resources 1.\tThe Martens Clause 2.\tThe Principle of Proportionality and the Obligation to Take Precautionary Measures 3.\tThe Principles of Discrimination and Distinction IV.\tStrengthening the Protection of Water Resources: International Criminal Law 1.\tThe Statute of the International Criminal Court 2.\tThe Arrest Warrant against President Omar Al Bashir V.\tConclusion B.\tThe Protection of Water under International Water Law I.\tWater Treaties and Armed Conflicts 1.\tThe Role of the International Law Association (ILA) in the Development of Principles on the Protection of Water Resources in Times of Armed Conflict 2.\tGeneral Principles Applicable to the Effects of Armed Conflicts on Treaties: The Role of the Institute of International Law (IIL) and the International Law Commission (ILC) II.\tInternational Environmental Law and the Protection of Water 1.\tThe Applicability of Instruments Protecting the Environment to Water Resources 2.\tMultilateral Environmental Agreements (MEAs) and Water 3.\tThe Protection Offered by International Customary Law III.\tThe Practice of International Watercourse Treaties and Armed Conflicts 1.\tThe Specific Solutions Found in International Watercourse Treaties 2.\tThe Normative Impact of International Humanitarian Law on International Water Law 3.\tThe Application of International Watercourse Treaties in Times of Armed Conflict 4.\tThe Danube River and Armed Conflicts IV.\tConclusion C.\tThe Protection of Water Under Human Rights Law I.\tAccess to Water in Human Rights Law 1.\tNormative Content of the Human Right to Water 2.\tInstruments of International Water Law and the Human Right to Water 3.\tThe Protection of the Human Right to Water in Times of Armed Conflict II.\tThe Human Right to Water and Protection of the Environment III.\tUnited Nations Investigatory Mechanisms and the Human Right to Water IV.\tConclusion D.\tPost-Conflict, Peace-building and Water I.\tHumanitarian Aid and Communities Affected by Environmental Damage II.\tHumanitarian and Environmental Assistance III.\tDisarmament Law and the Obligations of Environmental Clean-Up IV.\tPost-Conflict Legal Avenues to Protect the Human Right to Water V.\tConclusion Perspectives: A Specific Instrument Dedicated to the Protection of Water During and After Armed Conflicts?
