In years past, much of the discussion around International Humanitarian Law and International Human Rights Law has been dedicated to considering the convergence of the two regimes; to discover a way to increase respect for the protection of the individual in armed conflict. Meanwhile, egregious violations of individual’s human rights continue to occur in armed conflicts – those in Ukraine, Yemen, Ethiopia, Afghanistan, and many others. This paper surveys the relationship between the two international disciplines, and considers that though ihl and ihrl are two regimes that have different aims, both contain norms that strive for the protection of the individual in armed conflict. Ultimately, this paper argues that protection of individuals in armed conflict can be strengthened by importing ihl norms into the ihrl framework. This cross-pollination allows treaty bodies to interpret, and make comments about, State Parties’ adherence to ihl that can increase respect for those norms, given ihrl’s associated enforcement mechanisms and communications machinery.

不同视角的观点:通过使用国际人权法框架增加对国际人道法的尊重

在过去的几年里,围绕国际人道主义法和国际人权法的大部分讨论都致力于考虑这两种制度的趋同;找到一种方法来加强对武装冲突中个人保护的尊重。与此同时,在乌克兰、也门、埃塞俄比亚、阿富汗和许多其他国家的武装冲突中继续发生严重侵犯个人人权的行为。本文考察了这两个国际学科之间的关系,并认为尽管ihlihrl这是两个目标不同的制度,都包含力求在武装冲突中保护个人的规范。最后,本文认为,可以通过将国际人道主义法规范引入国际人权法框架来加强对武装冲突中个人的保护。考虑到国际人权法的相关执法机制和沟通机制,这种交叉授粉使条约机构能够解释缔约国对国际人道主义法的遵守情况并发表评论从而增加对这些规范的尊重。
