Abstract:
This chapter's primary goal is to explore where law and practice stand on the applicability of IHL, IHRL and their co-applicability, while acknowledging complexities and areas of uncertainty. Although significant doctrinal discussion has been dedicated to the theoretical issues of co-applicability, these are not the object of this chapter. Instead, it seeks to bring a practical perspective to the legal issues - considering how questions of applicability and interplay arise, and are determined, in practice, and exposing some of the array of relevant contextual, legal, political and institutional factors that may have a bearing on co-applicability.
