Propaganda, War Crimes Trials and International Law addresses the
emerging jurisprudence and international law concerning propaganda
in war crimes investigations and trials. The role of propaganda in
the perpetration of atrocities has emerged as a central theme in
the war crimes trials in the past century. The Nuremburg trials
initially, and the International Criminal Tribunal for the former
Yugoslavia and the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda
currently, have all substantially contributed to the development of
international law in this respect. Investigating and exploring the
areas between lawful and unlawful propaganda, they have dealt with
specific mechanisms and consequences of the phenomenon within the
perspective and framework of their international legal mandates.
But the cultural codes and argots through which propaganda operates
have vexed international courts struggling to assign responsibility
to the instigators of mass crimes, as subtle, but potentially
fatal, communications often remain undetected, misinterpreted or
even dismissed as entirely irrelevant. With contributions from
leading international scholars and legal practioners, Propaganda,
War Crimes Trials and International Law pursues a comparative
approach to this problem: providing an overview of the current
state of the theory of propaganda in the social sciences; exploring
this theory in the legal analysis of war crimes and related
proceedings; and, finally, offering a study of the prosecution of
propaganda-related crimes in international law, and the newly
emerging jurisprudence of war crimes propaganda cases.
