The FN FAL Battle Rifle


Book Description

Of all the infantry small arms developed during World War II, one that generated the most interest was the German 'assault rifle', the StG 44 Sturmgewehr. This innovative weapon inspired the Soviet AK-47 in 7.62x39mm calibre. In the West, the NATO countries looked hard at new weapons to upgrade their own infantry arsenals and counter the AK-47, resulting in the design of the Fusil Automatique Léger or FAL. It proved to be a successful battle rifle and was soon adopted by the military and police forces of no fewer than 93 nations. The FAL dominated the militaries of the West to such a degree that its nickname became the Right Arm of the Free World. The FAL fulfilled every role it was asked to perform and remains a viable and well-respected weapon to this day.




The Transfer of Conflict-Related Detainees


Book Description

Im Rahmen ihrer Beteiligung an multinationalen Militäroperationen ist es für truppenstellende Staaten erforderlich, Gegner in Gewahrsam zu nehmen. Doch was, wenn der Staat die Gewahrsamsperson nicht im eignen Gewahrsam behalten will? Unter welchen Voraussetzungen ist es möglich, die Gewahrsamsperson an einen anderen Staat zu überstellen? Im Gegensatz zu den Vorgaben des menschenrechtlichen refoulement-Verbots haben die humanitärvölkerrechtlichen Überstellungsregeln der Genfer Konventionen von 1949 bisher trotz ihrer vorrangigen Anwendbarkeit in bewaffneten Konflikten wenig Beachtung gefunden. Mit der Kommentierung dieser Regeln schließt dieses Werk eine Lücke in der wissenschaftlichen Literatur zur Thematik.
