Autor Paul Behrens Editat de Ralph Henham
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 28 noi 2007
This collection of essays presents a contextual view of genocide. The authors, who are academic authorities and practitioners in the field, explore the legal treatment, but also the social and political concepts and historical dimensions of the crime. They also suggest alternative justice solutions to the phenomenon of genocide. Divided into five parts, the first section offers an historical perspective of genocide. The second consists of case studies examining recent atrocities. The third section examines differences between legal and social concepts of genocide. Part four discusses the treatment of genocide in courts and tribunals throughout the world. The final section covers alternatives to trial justice and questions of prevention and sentencing.

Recenzii

'The Criminal Law of Genocide is a provocative examination of genocide as both a legal and a social concept. Deeply interdisciplinary in its focus, this edited volume presents bold arguments from fresh voices and from seasoned experts.' Mark A. Drumbl, Washington and Lee University, USA 'A very stimulating collection of interdisciplinary study that is rare in the emerging field of International Criminal Justice. Its thoughtful analysis provides fresh insights into an issue that rightfully should not be left to be dealt with only by lawyers.' Stefan Kirsch, Rechtsanwalt and Counsel before the ICTY and ICTR, Germany 'No library collection on human rights and/or genocide would be complete without this contemporary, well-conceived, and authoritative assessment of the many faces of genocide.' American Society of International Law Newsletter 'The chapters cover a remarkable variety of areas, touching upon difficult - and in some cases quite fascinating - issues addressed by or likely to be addressed by international judicial bodies. This book represents a diverse and topical collection of essays on genocide of value to the student of the law, as well as to students of politics.' Law & Politics Book Review 'The Criminal Law of Genocide: International, Comparative and Contextual Aspects provides a thorough approach to the study of genocide; it's inter-disciplinary analyses help inform the reader of not only the legal, but also the political, historical, social and cultural aspects that have underpinned the crime. The book will therefore appeal to not only legal practitioners but also to policy-makers, historians, academics and scholars.' Commonwealth Law Bulletin
