[Valentina Azarov is a Lecturer in International Law and Human Rights, Al-Quds Bard College, Al-Quds University, Palestine (on leave)] This is the third post of our Symposium on the Functional Approach to the Law of Occupation.

[Aeyal Gross is a Professor at Tel-Aviv University, Faculty of Law.] This is the first post of our Symposium on the Functional Approach to the Law of Occupation. Questions regarding the existence of an occupation, and especially its end, came to the fore in 2004-2005 with Israeli pronouncements about the end of its occupation of Gaza, and UN, US, and UK statements about the end of the occupation in Iraq.

Here is the description that was sent to the contributors: Occupation law has undergone significant evolution in modern times, and cases such as Iraq and Gaza have raised interesting questions about when an occupation ends and what the duties of an occupying power may be during the transition to restoration of lawful sovereignty....20 Apr Responses on Non-American Views of the ATS, and Marko Milanovic’s Response to Eric Posner
the law of nations, by its nature, governed relationships between or among states. Though "adopted" in municipal law, it was incumbent upon states to make the law of nations applicable to individuals. When they did so, they created municipal law - a uniquely municipal implementation of the law of nations. Sometimes this was done in English common law fashion by the courts. At other times, it was done by implementing legislation. This is, not surprisingly, the same approach the U.S. took to the law of war branch of the law...
