Abstract:
This chapter argues that the traditional combatant/noncombatant distinction must be expanded into a five-part distinction with three categories of combatants and two categories of non-combatants. The aim is to strengthen the case for maintaining the combatant/noncombatant distinction, by addressing and providing remedies for the difficult practical issues involved in applying the distinction in contemporary warfare.
