This seminar will explore different forms of regulation of new weapons technology: regulation ex ante, which occurs before a weapon or technique has been used in battle; regulation in media res, when a weapon or technique is new and in use, but not widely; and regulation post facto, when a weapon or technique has been widely used for a sustained period. The discussion is based on an ongoing research project exploring the extent to which, and in what way, the timing of the legal regulation of battlefield weapons and techniques matters.
