📢Check out @KatharineFortin's piece today in @just_security on civilian and political institutions of armed groups under international law
👉This is part of the Symposium on Armed Groups and International Law. In the Shadowland of Legality and Illegality (@Elgar_Law) we edited!

Non-State armed groups have government ministries, legislatures, courts, police forces, schools, media outlets, and universities.
@KatharineFortin writes that international law must better account for these civilian and political institutions.
