Teaching the practical aspects of peacekeeping is an activity that is mainly restricted to military staff colleges. However, for a number of years, students studying for the LL.M in International Human Rights Law and the MA in The Theory and Practice of Human Rights at the University of Essex (United Kingdom) have had the opportunity to participate in a unique exercise which is designed to examine the practical dilemmas faced by military and civilian personnel deployed as a part of peace support operations. This exercise, know as the SIMULEX, is staged at Colchester Garrison, headquarters of the 16 Air Assault Brigade. The SIMULEX provides participants with an opportunity to act out a number of scenarios which civilian and military personnel are likely to face when working within the context of peace support operations. Students and participating military personnel are assigned various "roles" and they engage in a number of joint problem solving exercises which are conceived with the aim of providing students with a real taste of the tough dilemmas faced by civilian and military personnel working on the ground and with the intention of fostering mutual understanding of the military and civilian perspectives. The origins, evolution and value of the SIMULEX as a teaching technique are described in this article. * Elizabeth Griffin, Lecturer in International Human Rights, Law Department of Essex University.

On 20 March 2003, a US and UK-led coalition attacked Iraq, formally basing its action on UN Security Council resolutions stretching back over a decade. The operation,Iraqi Freedom, engendered widespread criticism by States, non-governmental organizations, and respected academics. However, even as the debate continued, Coalition forces quickly defeated the Iraqi military and conquered the country. Less than two months after commencement of military action, US President Bush declared from the deck of the USS Abraham Lincoln that "major combat operations in Iraq have ended". This article explores, from a legal perspective, the published Coalition occupation policies implemented since the Iraqi defeat. Occupation authorities (the Coalition Provisional Authority-CPA) have promulgated most as regulations and orders. For purposes of analysis, they are grouped into five categories: governance, security, relief, the economy, and legal system. The 1907 Hague Convention IV (annexed Regulations) and the 1949 Fourth Geneva Convention contain the relevant occupation law. Although 1977 Protocol Additional to the Geneva Conventions includes some occupation provisions, since neither the United States nor Iraq are Parties, it is inapplicable, except as it restates customary international law. Acting under Chapter VII of the UN Charter, the Security Council has also adopted resolutions that both limit Coalition occupation activities, and expand them beyond the strict confines of international humanitarian law. These treaties and resolutions will serve as the normative standards against which Coalition policies will be evaluated.
