===Ending a war: ''Jus post bellum''=== In recent years, some theorists, such as Gary Bass, Louis Iasiello and Brian Orend, have proposed a third category within the just war theory. "[[Jus post bellum]] is described by some scholars as a new "discipline," or as "a new category of international law currently under construction".<ref>{{Cite book|last=Brabandere |first=Eric De |date=February 2014 |title=7 The Concept of Jus Post Bellum in International Law: A Normative Critique |chapter=The Concept of Jus Post Bellum in International Law: A Normative Critique |url=https://academic.oup.com/book/25936/chapter/193705796 |access-date=20 September 2024 |website=Oxford Academic|doi=10.1093/acprof:oso/9780199685899.003.0008 |isbn=978-0-19-968589-9 }}</ref> ''Jus post bellum''<ref>{{Cite book|last=Easterday |first=Jenifer |editor-first1=Jennifer S. |editor-first2=Jens |editor-first3=Carsten |editor-last1=Easterday |editor-last2=Iverson |editor-last3=Stahn |title=Exploring the Normative Foundations of Jus Post Bellum |chapter=Exploring the Normative Foundations of Jus Post Bellum: An Introduction |url=https://academic.oup.com/book/25936/chapter/193694588 |access-date=27 October 2024 |website=Oxford Academic |date=2014 |pages=1β12 |publisher=Oxford University Press|doi=10.1093/acprof:oso/9780199685899.003.0001 |isbn=978-0-19-968589-9 }}</ref> concerns justice after a war, including peace treaties, reconstruction, environmental remediation, war crimes trials, and war reparations. ''Jus post bellum'' has been added to deal with the fact that some hostile actions may take place outside a traditional battlefield. ''Jus post bellum'' governs the justice of war termination and peace agreements, as well as the prosecution of war criminals, and publicly labelled terrorists. The idea has largely been added to help decide what to do if there are prisoners that have been taken during battle. It is, through government labelling and public opinion, that people use ''jus post bellum'' to justify the pursuit of labelled terrorist for the safety of the government's state in a modern context. The actual fault lies with the aggressor and so by being the aggressor, they forfeit their rights for honourable treatment by their actions. That theory is used to justify the actions taken by anyone fighting in a war to treat prisoners outside of war.<ref>{{cite book|title=Studies in Moral philosophy: Just War Theory|date=October 2012|publisher=Brill|isbn=978-9004228504 |page=187 | author1= Thom Brooks}}</ref><ref>{{cite book|title=Justice after War: Jus Post Bellum in the 21st Century|date=May 2023|publisher=Catholic University of American Press|isbn=978-0813236513 | author1= David Kwon}}</ref>
