This timely book comprehensively examines whether the worst human
rights violations directed specifically at sexual and gender
minorities are punishable under international criminal law, as
codified in the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court.
Drawing on general rules of interpretation, the development of
human rights for sexual and gender minorities, and the social
construction of gender, this monograph reveals that the worst
crimes committed against persons because of their sexual
orientation or gender identity can amount to crimes against
humanity, particularly the crime of persecution under Article
7(1)(h). It also shows how legislators can be held individually
criminally responsible for passing laws that criminalize consensual
same-sex sexuality. The book not only makes a significant and
original contribution to the literature but is also highly relevant
for international criminal law practitioners, since, so far, no
cases regarding this topic exist. Dr. Valerie V. Suhr is currently
a trainee lawyer in the district of the Koblenz Court of Appeal in
Germany
