Opis

Michael Kearney analyses the prohibition of propaganda for war in international law and examines the potential of international law to prevent war by proposing that 'direct and public incitement to aggression' be included as a crime in the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court.

Recenzje

The book is skillfully written, providing a very well-elaborated and detailed analysis of the important issues involved. Kearney thus adds a valuable contribution to the existing knowledge on propaganda for war in international law: not only has he assembled a great deal of information about different aspects of the topic, he also lays bare some important recurring themes throughout the book...Kearney's book is definitely to be recommended to anyone with an interest in international law on freedom of expression
