International criminal justice indeed is a crowded field. But this
edited collection stands well above the crowd. And it does so with
dignity. Through interdisciplinary analysis, the editors skillfully
turn shibboleths into intrigues. Theirs is a kaleidoscopic project
that scales a gamut of issues: from courtroom discipline, to
gender, to the defense, to history. Through vivid deployment of
unconventional methods, this edited collection unsettles
conventional wisdom. It thereby pushes law and policy toward
heartier horizons.' - Mark A. Drumbl, Washington and Lee
University, School of Law, USInternational criminal justice as a
discipline throws up numerous conceptual issues, engaging
disciplines such as law, politics, history, sociology and
psychology, to name but a few. This book addresses themes around
international criminal justice from a mixture of traditional and
more radical perspectives. While law, and in particular
international law, is at the heart of much of the discussion around
this topic, history, sociology and politics are invariably infused
and, in some aspects of international criminal justice, are
predominant elements. Fundamentally the exploration concerns
questions of coherence and legitimacy, which are foundational to
both the content and application of the discipline, and the book
charts an illuminating path through these diverse perspectives. The
contributions in this book come from some of the eminent scholars
and practitioners in the area, and will provide some profound
insight into and an enriched understanding of international
criminal justice, helping to advance the field of study. This
ambitious and necessary book will appeal to academics and students
of international criminal law, international criminal justice,
international law, transitional justice and comparative criminal
law, as well as practitioners of international criminal law.
