handle is hein.journals/mllwr58 and id is 1 raw text is: The Military Law and the Law of War Review, Vol. 58, No. 1, 2020, p. 1 Editorial Welcome to issue 58-1 of The Military Law and the Law of War Review. First launched almost six decades ago in 1962 under the auspices of the International Society for Military Law and the Law of War, the Review has always served as a leading forum for debate among legal scholars and practitioners, providing an outlet for high-quality publications on all aspects of military law, the law of armed conflict, law on the use of force, as well as international criminal law and human rights law, inasmuch as they are related to situations of armed conflict. This issue of the Review marks a new and important step in its existence as this is the first time that Edward Elgar Publishing has handled the technical aspects of the publication which have long been managed by the able and motivated members of the Belgian Group of the International Society. We are thankful for the continuous and invaluable support of the Belgian Group and all associated persons, and we are now looking forward to this new exciting chapter. We hope that our longstanding readers will appreciate the new look and style of the Review and that our new readers will rapidly be convinced by the Review's established standards and dedication which we aim to uphold and strengthen. We are thus very happy and proud to present our readers - those who already know us and those who are getting to know us - with a great selection of articles that perfectly showcase the diversity and relevance of the topics that fall within the scope of our publication. First, Frederik Harhoff analyses the specificities, difficulties and importance of securing evidence of serious violations of international humanitarian law and inter- national human rights committed in armed conflicts for the purpose of (international) judicial proceedings. The author offers relevant recommendations for military person- nel participating in joint military operations abroad. Ka Lok Yip then examines the tendencies to define the scope of application of jus ad bellum negatively in relation to the scope of application of jus in bello and demonstrates their neutralising effect on the prohibition on the use of force under Article 2(4) of the Charter of the United Nations. Next, Mateusz Piqtkowski presents the origins and evolution of the markings of military aircraft under the law of aerial warfare and their legal significance, as a core element of the military aircraft definition. Finally, Francisco Lobo revisits the 'capture or kill' debate in the field of the law of armed conflict by offering a fresh outlook that reconstrues the notion of 'human enhancement of soldiers' from a normative standpoint. We hope you enjoy this issue! © 2020 The Author Journal compilation © 2020 Edward Elgar Publishing Ltd The Lypiatts, 15 Lansdown Road, Cheltenham, Glos GL50 2JA, UK and The William Pratt House, 9 Dewey Court, Northampton MA 01060-3815, USA
