THE APPLICABILITY OF INTERNATIONAL HUMANITARIAN LAW IN CASE OF BIOLOGICAL WAR

In this paper, the authors shall make an effort to find answers for the issue of the applicability of the international humanitarian law in case of biological (bacteriological) war, the history of warfare and the history of diseases which are unboundedly intertwined. The biological warfare as a weaponry uses the bacteria, the viruses and other organisms that cause illnesses and other toxins that may be found in nature, having an aim to kill, disable and seriously damage the combat capabilities of the enemy. It is forbidden, according to the common international law, as well as different international agreements, to use biological agents in an armed conflict since it is considered a war crime. The implementation of the international humanitarian law as part of the international law that unifies the international and legal instruments which are applied in cases of armed conflicts so as to limit the consequences from the same, is a question for which the international community and the states pay special attention. However, what is to be questioned are the possibilities to apply the international humanitarian law in case of a biological war. The author reckons that with all the emphasis that has been addressed to the cyber warfare in the last 3 (three) to 4 (four) years, the weapon for mass destruction is seemed to be a bit forgotten

FROM UNEQUAL ACCESS TO RESOURCES TO GLOBAL THREAT

There is a lot of debate in the world about the allocation of natural resources, especiallyduring periods of increasing scarcity (depletion and excessive consumption of resources). Theincrease in the number of earthlings, the increase in wealth and lifestyle worldwide, exceedsthe ability of the planet to cope with the consequences of human activities.The resources of the planet Earth will not be enough to meet the needs of the growingpopulation in the world. All people have the same needs and the same rights, but practiceshows that they are not equally satisfied and applied. Many people today suffer because ofextreme poverty, while others enjoy luxury and wealth.Economically uncompetitive countries are already vulnerable to political, social andreligious unrest, and the question is whether unequal access to resources will be just the sparkfor future global conflicts

THROUGH BRICS FROM THE PRESENT TO THE NEW WORLD ORDER IN THE FUTURE

BRICS today faces the challenge of taking historic steps in its quest to dictate the rules in an international order that needs leadership and direction.Namely, the BRICS countries have experienced significant economic growth in contrast to their political voices in global governance which have failed, over the past decades, to grow at the same level as their economic boom.In the post-Covid period and military operations on the territory of Ukraine, that is, from the perspective of today's developments, the key question is being asked more and more often, how does BRICS influence the architecture of global governance? This dilemma of how to think about the BRICS remains relevant, as today's external geopolitical context is very different from when the grouping first emerged.Today, BRICS is the main and most comprehensive platform for dialogue, acting on behalf of emerging markets and developing countries.On the other hand, from the perspective of their increasingly comprehensive power, the BRICS countries will definitely have the capacity to contribute more to international public goods. Namely, the BRICS countries can contribute significantly or maybe they can be the main bearers in solving all the main issues currently facing the world, i.e. international security, development, world economy and human rights, etc.In that context, BRICS is not conceived as a counterbalance to the established Western powers, but it requires the realization of a more efficient or equal interaction with them in order to build a better world order for humanity
