1 Needless to say, the jus ad bellum, however abolitionist of war it may be, abounds in that direction even more in considering that the only issue at stake is the regulation of interstate violence. Indeed, the idea of a “jus ad bellum of nonstate actors” is very alien to international legal thought (although I hope in the future to contribute to resurrecting the idea of resistance to tyranny as a motif of international law).
