Summary

The relationship between terrorism and armed conflict in Asia can be approached from different angles. Some of these are addressed in other chapters: the impact of the Vietnam War – involving guerilla war and counter-insurgency – on the development of international humanitarian law (IHL), particularly Additional Protocol I of 1977 (Chapter 11); national liberation violence in Asia (Chapter 10), including in East Timor (Chapter 24); jihad and the Moro rebellions in the Philippines (Chapter 23); ethnic and/or separatist conflicts in Burma (Chapter 21) and Sri Lanka (chapter by Lassée and Anketell); the Maoist guerilla war in Nepal (Chapter 25; and dialogue with Islamist fighters (Chapter 37).
