This book examines the UK approach to investigating international
crimes and serious human rights violations. In 2010, the United
Nations Secretary General referred to the emerging system of
international justice, including the creation of the International
Criminal Court, as the 'Age of Accountability.' However, the UK has
sometimes struggled to comply with its international law
obligations. Using examples from the post-World War II period to
2018, interviews with leading UK military lawyers and newly
disclosed official documents, this work explains the legal duties,
how the UK military and civilian justice systems investigate
alleged military misconduct and highlights the challenges involved.
It provides suggestions on strengthening domestic law and policy
and its importance for the UK's legitimacy as an exporter of rule
of law expertise. This text is essential reading for practitioners,
academics, government officials and students of international,
criminal, humanitarian or human rights law.
