This book offers a comprehensive study of incitement in its
various forms in international law. It discusses the status of
incitement to hatred in human rights law and examines its harms and
dangers as well as the impact of a prohibition on freedom of
speech. The book additionally presents a detailed definition of
punishable incitement. In this context, Wibke K. Timmermann argues
that incitement should be recognized as the crime of persecution,
where it is utilized within a system of persecutory measures by the
State or a similarly powerful organization.
The book draws on the Nahimana case before the International
Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda, as well as jurisprudence from German
and other courts following World War II to provide support for this
proposal. The work moreover provides a comprehensive analysis of
public incitement to crimes; solicitation or instigation; and the
related modes of liability aiding and abetting and commission
through another person.
Dedicated exclusively and comprehensively to incitement in its
various forms, this book will be of essential use and great
interest to students and researchers of international criminal law
and human rights law, in addition to practitioners within these
areas."
