Information
Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung
The aim of this course is to provide a basic understanding for students on the discussions surrounding the applicability of international law to cyberspace and address the most important topics which are subject of heavy debate in this context. In terms of content, this course will focus on the principle of sovereignty, the principle of non-intervention and the principle of non-use of force and the questions that arise when applying them to the cyber context. Moreover, questions related to international humanitarian law will be addressed, in a similar way. Furthermore, one session will be dedicated to the law of state responsibility, and overarching questions in this regard, in particular the unilateral response options and how they look like in the cyber context.
Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel
The basis of assessment will be an oral presentation and a written handout to be shared with the class at the two last sessions of the course. The presentation and handout will be based on a topic related to international law and cyber operations, and will focus on a particular critical question related to such. It can, however, also relate to a real-case cyber incident, upon which the student wishes to apply international law.
Mindestanforderungen und Beurteilungsmaßstab
The oral presentation is worth 50% of the grade, the written handout 20% and class participation 30%. A minimum of 50% need to be reached in order to pass this class.
Prüfungsstoff
During the oral presentation, students are expected to be able to discuss all the other content discussed during the 3 prior sessions.
