IMPLICAȚII ALE DECLARAȚIEI DE LA PARIS PRIVIND DREPTUL MARITIM (1856) ASUPRA MODULUI DE CODIFICARE A NORMELOR DE DREPT UMANITAR INTERNAȚIONAL
IMPLICATIONS OF THE PARIS DECLARATION ON MARITIME LAW (1856) ON HOW TO CODE THE RULES OF INTERNATIONAL HUMANITARIAN LAW

Summary/Abstract: If the idea of regulating the behaviour of the states in conflict towards certain sensitive categories of people involved in its conduct had found forms of manifestation in the previous eras, only in the second half of the nineteenth century did these rules of behaviour begin to be widely accepted and recognized in multilateral humanitarian treaties. The polarization of the international community in this period seemed to have a somewhat smaller influence in the approach of the codification of humanitarian protection norms, which was obvious even in the manner chosen for transforming the idea of limiting the suffering into legal norms with the widest possible applicability. The model used in the regulatory technique for the humanitarian field has been the one of the Paris Declaration Respecting Maritime Law from 1856 (with improvements, of course), at least until the end of the First World War.
