Routledge Security, Rights and Law: Israeli High Court Book

Explore a deep analysis of international law and judicial decisions in the Israeli High Court of Justice. This award-winning book, winner of the 2019 Francis Lieber Prize for an exceptional published book in the field of the Law of Armed Conflict, examines how the court interprets and applies international law principles. Through a detailed study of HCJ judgments rendered since the Second Intifada in 2000, the text looks at petitions filed by Palestinians. It specifically investigates challenges to the legality of measures implemented by Israeli governments and military authorities. These measures are often implemented for the stated purpose of enhancing security. This work is a significant addition to the Comparative Constitutionalism in Muslim Majority States series, providing essential research for students, legal professionals, and scholars interested in international law, human rights, and the legal complexities of the occupied West Bank.
