Calls for the realignment of fairness and the rights of the accused in procedural decision-making in international criminal trials

Examines what the jurisprudence and academic literature mean for legal procedure in practice
Weaves insights from original interviews with international criminal judges and lawyers into the analysis
Analyses primary texts from the ICTY and the ICC, including the statutes, Rules of Procedure and Evidence and Regulations
Includes case studies on disclosure, the use of adjudicated facts and the protection of witnesses – issues that are integral to the operation of rights in international criminal trials

Controversial cases such as the Karadžić trial and the Bemba acquittal have highlighted the importance of fairness in international criminal trials. Through an in-depth critical analysis of procedural decisions at the ICTY and ICC between 2008 and 2018, Sophie Rigney shows that there is a clear separation between fairness and rights in practice.
