You are about to read a very interesting debate, with implications in humanitarian, criminal and military law. Much like in the case of self-driving cars, the liability for autonomous drones is a hot debate, especially due to their advantages and well spread usage.

Autonomous drones are aircrafts without a human pilot aboard. They are also known as unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). There are various actors that could be held accountable in case something goes wrong.

In our Christmas edition we wanted to make our debating section special. This is why we invited two debaters to argue pro and against the motion, in the way they do when they attend debating competitions with their peers. These two first year law students have been debating for more than four years and have recently won Vienna Freshers’ Debating Tournament 2013. Therefore, we believe you are up for a treat.
