Command responsibility, or executive accountability, assumes that
leaders are responsible for the actions of their subordinates. If
subordinates misbehave, violate basic moral laws, transgress
international law, or thwart international standards of behavior,
their leader may be called before to justice. Standards that set
the boundaries of human action have been evolving for many
millennia, with some degree of precision arriving after the
post-World War II international war crimes prosecutions. The United
Nations and other organizations have helped codify the
international law under which commanders may be held responsible.
This book explores the factor that have moved civilization closer
to a standard approach to rule of law and the accountability of
leaders for the actions of those they command.
