This collection of essays addresses the most pressing contemporary
issues in international law and relations. The authors are leading
experts and renowned actors on the international stage, or in
national jurisdictions, who have all interacted closely with Louise
Arbour in the course of her career. Louise Arbour has had a
profound impact on the development of international law and has
played significant roles in international institutions, as
Prosecutor for the International Criminal Tribunals for Rwanda and
the former Yugoslavia, United Nations High Commissioner for Human
Rights, CEO of the International Crisis Group and Special
Representative of the UN Secretary-General for International
Migration. She also held the top legal positions in Canada and
helped shape Canadian law, as an academic and as a judge, sitting
on its highest bench, the Supreme Court of Canada. Louise Arbour is
a leader on issues of conflict prevention and resolution, criminal
justice and human rights, and her vision often sets the standard.
This unique collection of essays by world leaders and experts
tackles substantive topics, such as the right to truth, torture,
immunity and women’s rights, in light of current and past events,
challenging basic assumptions and bringing fresh thoughts to
debates that are at the core of the world’s agenda. The backbone
of each contribution is the interaction between justice and peace,
between human rights and conflict, and between law and politics, in
the international sphere or domestic context. Doing Peace the
Rights Way gathers together great minds, in honour of a true
champion and ambassador of justice and human rights, in the hope
that their vision on the most urgent debates of our time can help
in getting us closer to the ideals of peace and justice for all.
