In this new edition of the book that has inspired the global justice movement, Geoffrey Robertson QC explains why we must hold political and military leaders accountable for genocide, torture and mass murder.
He shows how human rights standards can be enforced against cruel govern-ments, armies and multi-national corporations. lfhis seminal work now contains a critical perspective on recent events in Egypt, Syria and Libya; the Charles Taylor conviction; and the trials of Mladic Karadzic and Khalid Sheikh Mohammed.
Cautiously optimistic about ending impunity, but unsparingly critical of those who evade international rules, this book will provide further guidance to a movement which aims to make justice predominant in world affairs.
