Abstract
During a period of transition from armed conflict to peace, or after an armed conflict, questions are raised about the international human rights obligations of post-conflict states. Because of the challenges faced by many post-conflict states, questions need to be asked about the difficulty of applying the rules of international human rights law in post-conflict states. This paper analyses this difficulty and highlights the uncertainty and rigidity of international human rights law. It addresses two main ideas. First, the extent of the applicability of international human rights law to post-conflict states is not clearly defined. Second, the burden that the rules of international human rights law put on the shoulders of post-conflict states is too heavy in certain situations and there is a need to establish clarity and flexibility in new post-conflict international human rights law.
