PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Rebecca Mignot-Mahdavi is Lecturer in International Law at the University of Manchester. She is a leading expert on issues of global security governance. Her work reflects on states' evolving legal and policy capacity to deal with security threats, where new forms of non-state transnational risk, counter-risk strategy and technology are in play. She is also a Guest Lecturer at SciencesPo since 2018, the Managing Editor of the Yearbook of International Humanitarian Law, an Associate Fellow at the T. M. C. Asser Institute, a Research Fellow at the International Center for Counter-Terrorism and a Member of the Board of Directors of the International Society for Military Law and the Law of War.
'In this breathtaking and sophisticated book, Rebecca Mignot-Mahdavi demonstrates how law helped institutionalize and normalize the coming of armed drones, with fateful consequences for the extension in time and expansion in space of war. Her damning revelation of the ways that law made possible the ubiquity of a new and more individualized form of violence places US program within a transnational survey, highlighting how practice and technology have in turn transformed law in the process.' Samuel Moyn, Chancellor Kent Professor of Law and History, Yale University, author of Humane (2021) 'Twenty-one years since the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, one might reasonably ask, 'do we need another book on armed drones?'. The originality and insight yielded by the analysis and research found in this book answers the question: Yes, we need this one.' Nehal Bhuta, Professor of Public International Law, University of Edinburgh
