From the back cover: “In this study, Heike Niebergall-Lackner discusses the classical military offence of desertion from the standpoint of international law. Taking account of the three factual situations that might arise following a desertion in international armed conflicts—capture by the home country, capture or crossing over to the enemy party, and seeking refuge in a country not involved in the conflict—the examination offers a comprehensive overview of the treatment and the protection afforded to deserters under international human rights law, international humanitarian law and refugee law.”
