Complicity in International Law delves into the examination of questions that arise from a state's involvement in conflict with another state or an international organization. Based on the provisions of international law, a state that aids and abets the illegal act of another state or international organization itself commits an offense if it is aware of the primary fact and is bound by the same obligation. International law provides a framework for the codification process undertaken by the International Law Commission. Over time, the practice and its consequences have evolved, and the doctrine has matured in response to the original hypothesis. Numerous cases of participation in the unlawful conduct of others, such as facilitating the illicit use of armed force or providing financial support to states responsible for human rights violations, have been documented since the immediate aftermath of World War II. International doctrine has long been intrigued by the theme of multiple subjects engaging in an international illicit act. This is a relatively recent phenomenon, as the issue had previously received limited in-depth analysis in a limited number of works, with only a few of them being monographic in nature. Complicity in International Law aims to provide a comprehensive examination of this issue.
