Recenzje

'With The UN International Criminal Tribunals, a 700-page tome, William Schabas has contributed another major work to the canon of international law scholarship. … this current volume is apt to become the definitive treatise on the so-called ad hoc tribunals created under the auspices of the United Nations.' The American Journal of International Law
