Throughout history, prisoners of war have been subjected to various kinds of violations, as there were no laws governing how they should be treated by those who detained them, taking into account the original state of hostility between the soldier who became a prisoner and the state or army that succeeded in capturing him.
International humanitarian law is based on the principle of humane treatment, which aims to preserve human honour, life, and dignity during armed conflicts.
The phenomenon of captivity is considered inherent to all wars, ancient and modern, and the system of captivity in international humanitarian law is linked to the combatant, as the latter must meet specific conditions for waging war and obtaining prisoner-of-war treatment if he falls into enemy hands.
Military personnel and legal specialists, and anyone interested in international humanitarian law.
