Recenzje

'...it represents, in a concise and convenient format, the contemporaneous thinking of some key participants and observers of the 1998 Rome Conference.' The Law and Politics Book Review 'The book is easily accessible through its clear and systematic structure of the different papers...the book is unique in the sense that it has been written by those who have been directly involved with the implementation of the ICC, and it is a very pragmatic approach to the underlying problems of the Statute. In sum, the book provides the reader with a lot of factual information about the preparation phase and the Rome conference, and it also contains a wealth of critical ideas.' German Yearbook of International Law ’...a useful collection of short analyses of topics related to the ICC.’ Netherlands International Law Review '...a good book for the identification of the character of the system of international criminal law within the law of the ICC.' Contemporary Journal of International Criminal Law
