Description

This article distinguishes the traditional concepts of jus ad bellum and jus in bello (law of war and law in war) from the new doctrine of jus post bellum (law of post-war reconstruction). The author examines jus post bellum in light of the recent non-consensual legal reforms in Iraq, Kosovo, and East Timor to demonstrate how international bodies and coalitions are increasingly assuming legislative functions, legitimately and otherwise, in the context of their duties as interim administrators. The large degree of discretion conferred upon these administrators does not always ensure adequate levels of trusteeship, accountability, and proportionality, which are integral to the stability of post-conflict zones. The author contends that a distinct jus post bellum framework that incorporates these principles of justice would allow for a more systematic and comprehensive approach to legal reform in occupied territories, which would in turn facilitate the transition to legitimate self-government. Cet article distingue les concepts traditionnels de jus ad bellum et de jus in bello (le droit a la guerre et le droit darts la guerre) de la nouvelle doctrine du just post bellum (droit de la reconstruction apres la guerre). L'auteur se penche sur le jus post bellum suite aux reformes juridiques non consensuelles en Irak, au Kosovo et an Timor oriental pour montrer comment les coalitions et organes internationaux s'attribuent de plus en plus souvent des fonctions legislatives--legitimement ou non--parmi leurs taches en tant qu'administrateurs interimaires. Le degre eleve de discretion dont beneficient ces administrateurs ne garantit pas toujours des niveaux adequats de saine gestion, de responsabilite et de proportionnalite, essentiels a la stabilite de territoires qui ont ete le theatre d'un conflit. L'auteur avance qu'un cadre de jus post bellum distinct incorporant ces principes de justice conduirait a une approche plus systematique et complete a la reforme juridique dans les territoires occupes, ce qui a son tour faciliterait la transition vers un gouvernement autonome legitime.
