International Criminal Law

Compact yet highly informative, this pioneering book systematically analyzes international criminal law in light of the latest developments, including the jurisprudence of the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia and that for Rwanda. It covers many areas, including the legal foundations of international criminal law; the substantive law of genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes, and aggression; modes of perpetration of international crimes and grounds for excluding international criminal responsibility; and the implementation of international criminal justice before international criminal tribunals.
