Essays on International Criminal Justice
ISBN: 9781841130521 / Angielski / Twarda / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Crimes of atrocity have profound and long-lasting effects on any society.

Thus, the idea of strengthening preventative action has taken on greater relevance and is now encompassed in the emerging notion of 'responsibility to prevent.' International courts and...

ISBN: 9781849461764 / Angielski / Twarda / 284 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Criminal law is one of the most rapidly changing areas of contemporary EU law and integration.

The phenomenon of EU criminal law as such is, however, far from new, but has developed on an ad hoc basis, not least as a result of the case law of the European Court of Justice (ECJ). Central to the Court's reasoning in this area has been the principle of effectiveness. A main theme running through this book is the role of the axiom of effectiveness,...

As the author explains, this human reference point for reason and good sense is likely to be far more receptive to sound explanation and argument than the media (and tabloid press in particular) might give credit. And after all, it is his or her taxes which are being...
