This authoritative book addresses the greatest challenge facing the
International Criminal Court since its historic establishment in
1998: reconciling the demand for justice for the most serious
crimes known to humanity with the promotion of sustainable peace in
conflict areas around the world. In describing and analyzing this
challenge, Errol Mendes demonstrates that the Court is a product of
centuries of global efforts to integrate peace with justice.
Focusing on two important prosecutions involving indictments of the
president and other senior officials of Sudan and a savage rebel
group in Northern Uganda, the author argues that the choice between
peace and justice is not a zero sum game. Based on knowledge and
experience obtained during his time as a visiting professional at
the Court, the author combines insights from Court leaders with his
own analysis in his call for greater international cooperation with
the Court in fulfilling its mandate and overcoming other obstacles
that threaten its work into the future. Scholars and students of
criminal justice, international studies, political science and
human rights, as well as civil society groups, government officials
and those working with international justice organizations, will
find in this book a unique and sophisticated perspective on this
complex dilemma.
