    The Humanization of Humanitarian Law : Human rights law and the principles of humanity have fostered some welcome developments in the law of war: reciprocity requirements have been reduced, accountability has been increased, and procedures for lawmaking and interpretation have been improved. The author concludes, however, that tempering the harshness of the law of war with human rights values alone will be limited by the present par-ameters of humanitarian law and the prevailing societal values.

    Temporary Protection of Refugees: Elements of a Formalized Regime - As the 1951 Refugee Convention has fallen into disfavor, different forms of temporary protection have been extended to forced migrants, especially from Bosnia-Herzegovina and Kosovo, as a substitute for refugee status, But the conflicting functions of temporary protection and competing motives of its proponents impede its development. Its content is being clarified in the European Union's move to address temporary protection under the Treaty of Amsterdam. Agreement on sharing responsibility for its implementation will: likely be delayed.
