SUMMARY:When norms fail: impunity’s impact on international law
DESCRIPTION:This panel will examine the existential threat posed by failu
 res to hold states or individuals accountable for egregious violations o
 f the core principles of international humanitarian law (IHL)\, namely: 
 proportionality\, humanity\, necessity and distinction. In short: can th
 e norms of IHL survive an environment in which abominable acts of mass v
 iolence are met with blind eyes or tacitly defended by state authorities
 ? Does failure to hold perpetrators to account raise the prospect of tot
 al war with the only rule being ‘might over right’?\n
