Abstract "The question posed and answered in this book is: When may military forces1 use force during armed conflict? In order to focus the book the decision has been made to limit this question to the use of force against persons. Operationally, this is determined by the rules of engagement (roe), and the focus here is on nato roe. Legally, the answer is not so simple. Although the law of armed conflict (loac) is central to the regulation of the use of force during armed conflict, it is not the only applicable law. In particular, self- defence still applies. As a result, this book aims to tackle the relationship between loac and self- defence, and nato roe and self- defence"-- Provided by publisher.
