Abstract

What does proportionality reasoning mean for decision support in international humanitarian law (ihl)? We first consider contemporary ihl commentaries on proportionality as an analogue form of decision support through a paradigmatic example. Over time, proportionality in ihl has changed from being a rule-specific space for discretionary decision making to a much broader compromise-seeking within boundaries marked by law. Today, proportionality is a master norm in ihl, remaking rules by stealth and enabling the accommodation of novel master technologies as lawful. Artificial Intelligence (ai) support for military decision making is one such master technology that resonates particularly well with the inner structure of proportionality thinking: both build on cost-benefit analysis and engender the quantification of the world through data collection. We analyse how cost-benefit analysis and digitalization and algorithmic processing intersect in the U.S. legal context, to then proliferate into U.S. warfare and decision support systems, and onwards into ihl.
国际人道主义法中的决策支持与比例技术
比例推理对国际人道法中的决策支持意味着什么?我们首先考虑当代国际人道主义法对比例性的评论,通过一个范例作为决策支持的类似形式。随着时间的推移,国际人道法中的比例性已经从一个特定规则的自由裁量决策空间转变为在法律规定的界限内寻求更广泛的妥协。如今,比例性已成为国际人道法的主要规范,通过秘密方式重新制定规则,并使适应新的主要技术成为合法。支持军事决策的人工智能(ai)就是这样一种大师技术,它与比例思维的内在结构产生了特别好的共鸣:既建立在成本效益分析的基础上,又通过数据收集对世界进行量化。我们分析了成本效益分析、数字化和算法处理如何在美国法律背景下交叉,然后扩散到美国的战争和决策支持系统,进而进入ihl。

期刊介绍: Established in 1930, the Nordic Journal of International Law has remained the principal forum in the Nordic countries for the scholarly exchange on legal developments in the international and European domains. Combining broad thematic coverage with rigorous quality demands, it aims to present current practice and its theoretical reflection within the different branches of international law.
