Recenzje

This book offers an astute account of how history is being constructed in international courtrooms. It shows how historical narratives by international criminal courts are neither static nor final, and it argues that international judgments should not be seen as historical endpoints but rather as discursive beginnings. The book is brilliant in its nuanced approach and convincing through its meticulous argumentation.
