Edward Elgar Publishing Ltd Conceptualizing Femicide as a Human Rights
Book SynopsisThis thought-provoking book conceptualizes femicide as a multifaceted human rights violation and proposes state responsibility for group-related risks of violence against women and girls. In doing so, it reassesses the concept of femicide, analysing it in view of the crime of genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes, as well as several facets of human rights.Angela Hefti challenges the common definition of femicide, extending it beyond the killing of women due to their gender to include elements of victim blame, sexual abuse, forced marriage and delayed investigations by authorities. Chapters address femicide in the context of the African, Inter-American and European regional and universal human rights systems. Case studies from Iraq, Nigeria and Mexico provide a fundamental understanding of the multidimensional and worldwide nature of femicide. Spanning several key academic debates, the book incorporates underlying feminist legal theory and approaches pertaining to the subordination of women and girls in society, arguing that femicide should qualify as an autonomous human rights violation.Providing an impetus for further research on femicide, particularly on state responsibility for crimes committed by private actors, this book will be a crucial resource for academics in human rights and humanitarian law, criminal law and justice. The book will also be highly valuable to activists, practitioners, and lawyers with an interest in advancing aspects of femicide in international human rights law.Table of ContentsContents: 1.

Edward Elgar Publishing Ltd Complicity and the Law of International
Book SynopsisThis timely book examines the responsibility of international organizations for complicity in human rights and humanitarian law violations. It comprehensively addresses a lacuna in current scholarship through an analysis of the mandates and modus operandi of UN peace operations, offering workable normative solutions and striking a balance between the UN s duty not to contribute to international law violations and its need to discharge mandated tasks in a highly volatile environment. Building on existing scholarship on State responsibility for aid or assistance, this incisive book is the first to focus on how the complicity of international organizations in human rights and humanitarian law violations can be established. Through a re-examination of classic legal notions such as due diligence and effective control, and their application to the problem of UN responsibility for complicity, Dr. Magdalena Pacholska provides a pertinent analysis of the complex issues surrounding the UN's legal exposure for its activities in the field of peace and security. Legal advisers working for the UN and other international organizations, national Ministries of Defence, and courts with jurisdiction in this area, will find this book's insights both valuable and useful in practice. It will also be of interest to scholars and employees of NGOs with a focus on international humanitarian law and the accountability of international organizations. Trade Review'This book provides a thorough analysis of some of the important legal questions arising in the day-to-day complex functioning of contemporary peace operations and offers thought-provoking ideas grounded in systemic, in depth study of a variety of legal norms, principles and concepts from various fields of international law. Practitioners will appreciate particularly the comprehensive examination of the International Law Commission's over half a century long work on State and International Organizations responsibility laid before the reader in a forthright yet insightful manner. A must-read for practitioners advising decision makers in states and international organizations.' --Eric Mongelard, Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights'This cutting-edge study offers a rigorous analysis of major issues in the law of international organizations' responsibility. It covers a broad range of legal sources, highlights central controversies in this rapidly developing legal field and enriches international legal scholarship.' --Moshe Hirsch, Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel'The legal responsibility of UN peacekeeping forces for aiding or not preventing violations of international humanitarian law remains among the most vexing questions in contemporary international law. This new treatise by Dr. Magdalena Pacholska fills a critical gap in legal doctrine and theory on this topic. It offers a comprehensive, meticulous and creative approach to the responsibility of international organizations for complicity in violations occurring during armed conflicts, and lays the ground for holding UN peacekeepers to legal account.' --Yuval Shany, Hebrew University, IsraelTable of ContentsContents: 1.

Edward Elgar Publishing Ltd Peace and Justice at the International Criminal
Book SynopsisPeace and Justice at the International Criminal Court focuses on the evolution and the present-day work of the International Criminal Court, a historic global institution. Errol P. Mendes provides a compelling argument that there can never be a sustainable peace in conflicts unless the cause of justice is also addressed. The author dives deep into the facts and rulings of the Court that involved some of the most serious international conflicts in recent times. The author also discusses the challenges facing the Court from failed prosecutions to failures of the UN Security Council and other member states. What results is a detailed but honest critique of where the Court succeeds and where it needs to improve. Mendes goes on to provide a prediction of the greatest challenges facing the Court in the foreseeable future. This book is a valuable resource for academics and students in international criminal law and practice, public international relations, political science, military and war studies.Table of ContentsContents 1.

Springer Nature Switzerland AG The Persecution of Children as a Crime Against
Book SynopsisThis book addresses age-based persecution of children as a crime against humanity in connection with genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes (persecution - with some variation in the elements of the crime - is an existing offence under the Rome Statute of the permanent International Criminal Court, the statutes of various international criminal tribunals i.e. International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda, the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia and under the statutes of other international criminal courts (i.e. the Special Court of Sierra Leone)). The book introduces a completely original concept in international criminal law, however, in discussing age-based persecution of children as an international crime against humanity where (i) the particular discrete child collective is targeted ‘as such’ for international atrocity crimes or (ii) individual children are targeted based on their age-based group identity as it intersects with other perpetrator – targeted characteristics such as gender, ethnicity, religion etc.Table of Contents1 Introduction.- 2 International Atrocity Crimes Targeting Children and Lacunae in Charging Under International Criminal Law.- 3 Age-Based Persecution Targeting Children.- 4 The Persecution of Children in Connection with Genocide.- 5 The Persecution of Children ‘In Connection With’ Crimes Against Humanity.- 6 The Persecution of Children ‘In Connection With’ War Crimes: Selected Exemplars.- 7 Concluding Remarks: The Persecution of Children as a Rome Statute Prosecutable Crime Against Humanity.

Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG Prosecuting International Crimes and Human Rights
Book SynopsisThis casebook addresses selected precedent-setting rulings of various international human rights and international criminal courts with a focus on the child victims of international crimes and human rights abuses. The cases are analysed from the children’s human rights perspective and the question is examined as to what extent the aforementioned courts are according these children justice. The scope of the book is thus limited to the consideration of these representative important cases concerning violations of (a) international human rights and humanitarian law and (b) international criminal law involving child victims and the judicial remedies accorded or denied these victims and their family members. This is not in any way to diminish the suffering and importance of the adult victims of violations of fundamental human rights and grave international crimes. Rather, the book is intended to deal with the restricted and largely neglected topic of to what extent international courts are attending to the implications of there being child victims with respect to the courts’ addressing and handling of, among other matters, the following: (a) the con?rmation of charges relating to child-speci?c international crimes (i. e. recruitment of child soldiers, forced child marriage etc.Table of ContentsAn Introduction to the Organizational Structure, Enabling Statutes or Conventions, Case Processing Procedure, and Jurisdiction of the International Courts.- The Inter-American Human Rights System.- European International Human Rights Court System.- The International Ad Hoc Criminal Courts of Rwanda and the Territory of the Former Yugoslavia.- The Special Court of Sierra Leone.- The International Criminal Court.- The International Human Rights Courts.- Inter-American Court of Human Rights.- European Court of Human Rights.- The International Ad Hoc Criminal Courts.- International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda.- International Tribunal for the Prosecution of Persons Responsible for Serious Violations of International Humanitarian Law Committed in the Territory of Former Yugoslavia Since 1991.- The International Hybrid Criminal Courts.- The Special Court for Sierra Leona.- The Special Court for Sierra Leona.- The International Criminal Court (The Hague).- Case 9: The Prosecutor v.

T.M.C. Asser Press Humanness as a Protected Legal Interest of Crimes
Book SynopsisCentral to this book is the concept of humanity in international law. It traces the evolution of that concept within international law, studies the existing theories of crimes against humanity, and lays out its own theory based on an inclusive view of “humanity”. Crimes against humanity are core crimes under international law; their modern definition is found in the Rome Statute. However, their protective scope remains unclear, with the exact meaning of “humanity” left undefined in law.The proposed theory argues that “humanity” should be understood as “humanness” and crimes against humanity should be criminalised because humanness constitutes these crimes’ valid protected interest. This volume in the International Criminal Justice Series offers an analysis of the German doctrine of Rechtsgut to justify the penalization of crimes against humanity at both domestic and international levels.This is the first monograph on crimes against humanity written by an author from the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) aimed at an international audience, and should constitute a useful tool for academics, students and practitioners of international law.Rustam Atadjanov, LLB, LLM, Dr.jur., attained his Ph.D. at the University of Hamburg in Germany and is a former Legal Adviser to the Regional Delegation of the International Committee of the Red Cross in Central Asia, Tashkent, Uzbekistan.Table of ContentsIntroduction.- Main Substantive Terms, Their Basic Differences and Links, and Leading Working Hypothesis.- Historical Overview of the Development of the Concept of Humanityin International Law and Crimes against Humanity.- “Humanity” within the Contemporary Context of International Law Dealing with Crimes against Humanity.-“Humanity” as a Valid Protected Interest under the Rechtsgutstheorie.- The Protected Legal Interests of Crimes against Humanity and Other Core Crimes under International Law: A Comparative Analysis.- Conclusion.
