'This Research Agenda provides an insightful examination of the international legal regimes governing the use of armed force by states and other actors. It explores the interaction between these regimes, highlights existing gray areas, and identifies key topics for future research. Combining traditional themes with emerging issues—such as the deployment of cyber capabilities, artificial intelligence, and the use of force in outer space—the book offers a forward-looking perspective on a constantly evolving field. Authored by leading experts with both academic and practical knowledge and experience, it delivers a rigorous blend of legal analysis, critical evaluation, and pragmatic insight. This makes it an essential reference for scholars, policymakers, and practitioners alike.'
