N2 - Whether States can act in self-defence against armed attacks carried out by non-State actors is one of the major debates of contemporary international law. It has relevance: the issues are significant and implicate a ‘cornerstone rule’ of the discipline, the prohibition against the use of force.1 It has drama: ‘two main camps’2 are said to face each other in what is now frequently (if simplistically) portrayed as an epic argument opposing ‘restrictivists’ and ‘expansionists’.3 It has focus: positions are clearly articulated; academics take sides - where do you stand on the ‘unwilling or unable’ test;4 what’s your view on the ‘Bethlehem Principles’;5 have you signed the ‘Plea against the Abusive Invocation of Self-Defence’?6 - and do not mince words.7.
