This book collects together the most important papers of Antonio
Cassese, the first President of the International Criminal Tribunal
for the former Yugoslavia and chairman of the UN Commission of
Inquiry into the crimes committed in Darfur.
Written over a period of 25 years, from 1974 to 2001, the papers
chart the development of Cassese's thought on the central issues
that have shaped his life's work: the laws relating to armed
conflict, respect of individual rights and the prosecution of
individuals for international crimes. Emerging from the papers is
Cassese's vision of the individual and human dignity as the
lynchpin of the international legal system, and the need to balance
the fact of statehood as an essential feature of modern
international society with the protection of individual
rights.
In a new paper, written especially for the collection, Cassese
looks back over the development of his understanding of
international law and presents his current view of the issues
discussed throughout the volume. The volume also features an
exhaustive bibliography of Cassese's publications, and biographical
notes from Cassese's colleagues.
By gathering together the most important writings of one of the
preeminent figures in contemporary international criminal justice,
this collection provides not only the definitive statement of
Cassese's thought, but a unique insight into some of the key
developments in international law over the last quarter of the
twentieth century.
