Since the late nineteenth century, when IHL was arguably founded on the neutralization of battlefield medical aid, humanitarian actors have expanded their role and mission, contributing to the evolution of contemporary international humanitarian law (IHL). Against this backdrop, authors were invited to reflect on the legal framework of humanitarian action and the ongoing relevance of fundamental humanitarian principles. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Volume contains two chapters dedicated to the subject of humanitarian actors. The first chapter argues in favour of the reconstruction of the laws of humanitarian assistance from the perspective of humanitarian practitioners, while the second chapter foregrounds the role of the state as a key humanitarian actor. The Volume further features two general submissions investigating the legality of toxic chemicals for law enforcement purposes under the Chemical Weapons Convention, and the legal implications of tactical intelligence provision to a party to an international armed conflict. The Volume, as usual, ends with a Year in Review section. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eYIHL\u003c\/em\u003e is a leading annual publication devoted to the study of IHL.
