The regulation of warfare as envisaged by the Hague and Geneva Conventions may be seen as a paradigm for the legal control of international conflict in general. This article suggests two complementary theoretical frameworks to explain the creation and application of norms regarding restraints in war: (a) a framework based on the theory of bargaining and (b) a framework based on the theory of integration. Each framework is described by a set of interrelated hypotheses. So far, they have the status of pre theory only.
