Opis

It was hoped that the creation of the International Criminal Court would enable the extradition and prosecution of crimes which shock the world. Fifteen years later, Kittichaisaree scrutinises the achievements and limitations of the court so far, offering his own vision for ensuring that no international criminal escapes the eye of justice.

Recenzje

This is a wide-ranging book ... it has real resonance given the ongoing conflict in Syria.
