Cambridge University Press Genocide in International Law
Book SynopsisThe 1948 Genocide Convention is a vital legal tool in the international campaign against impunity. Its provisions, including its enigmatic definition of the crime and its pledge both to punish and to prevent the ''crime of crimes'', have now been considered in important judgments by the International Court of Justice, the international criminal tribunals and domestic courts. Since the second edition appeared in 2009, there have been important new judgments as well as attempts to apply the concept of genocide to a range of conflicts. Attention is given to the concept of protected groups, to problems of criminal prosecution and to issues of international judicial cooperation, such as extradition. The duty to prevent genocide and its relationship with the doctrine of the ''responsibility to protect'' are also explored.

It explores three specific weapons, namely nano-enhanced thermobarics, optogenetics and genetic modification, and their existing legal frameworks, relevance and future military use of nanomaterials and other technologies.Trade Review'The book is both legally sophisticated and practically oriented, concluding with a series of recommendations for scientists, governments and armed forces.' Professor Hilary Charlesworth, University of Melbourne, and Judge, International Court of Justice'The book will fully inform – with sufficient detail and clarity - an expert in one field who needs or wants information in another field … to analyse future 'means or methods of warfare', involving any number of new technologies, in the complex and broad legal review of contemporary arms control frameworks.'

Cambridge University Press The International Law of Migrant Smuggling
Book SynopsisThis book, a companion volume to The International Law of Human Trafficking, presents the first-ever comprehensive and in-depth analysis of the international law of migrant smuggling. The authors call on their direct experience of working with the United Nations to chart the development of new international laws.Trade Review'In her award-winning book, The International Law of Human Trafficking, Anne Gallagher created an invaluable reference for policy makers, practitioners and all those working to end impunity for traffickers and secure justice for victims. This volume, The International Law of Migrant Smuggling, is a fitting and timely successor. With precision, clarity and compassion, Gallagher and her coauthor untangle the complex and often misunderstood web of rights, obligations and responsibilities that govern the facilitated movement of irregular migrants across borders. In so doing they make abundantly clear what States must, may, and may not do when responding to migrant smuggling. Looking ahead, there can be little doubt that migrant smuggling will continue to present a great challenge to the international community. I am confident that this book will make a substantial contribution to advancing constructive dialogue on this difficult, controversial issue.' William L. Swing, Director General of the International Organization for Migration'Written from extensive experience and a deep understanding of not only the harshness and dangers of migrant smuggling but also of its moral and legal complexity, this book aims to explain 'what States must do, what they may do, and what they are prevented from doing in relation to migrant smuggling'. The authors have achieved this, in a fine work that combines thoughtful and precise analysis with great practical utility.' Vaughan Lowe, QC, Emeritus Chichele Professor of Public International Law, University of Oxford'Migrant smuggling is a major problem for the international community. But regulatory responses rely increasingly on quick fixes such as harsh treatment of the migrants, growing criminalization and the militarization of border controls. This new book, coauthored by Anne Gallagher, one of the world's leading experts, provides a superb overview of the complex international legal regime that applies. It perceptively situates the challenges in the broader context within which long-term solutions must be sought, and it sheds light on the drawbacks and limitations of existing legal and policy approaches.' Philip Alston, John Norton Pomeroy Professor of Law, New York University School of Law'In the history of the human rights movement, most marginalized persons have been able to fight for their rights from the standpoint of citizenship: they were claiming equal treatment as citizens. By definition, irregular migrants will never access the political stage and therefore can only count on the rule of law and human rights guarantees: making this accessible to them is an enormous challenge. Through a particularly thorough analysis of the available international legal sources, Anne Gallagher and Fiona David create a detailed portrait of the irregular migrant as a rights-holder. This volume will be a valuable guide for years to come.' François Crépeau, United Nations Special Rapporteur on the Human Rights of Migrants and Professor of Public International Law, McGill UniversityTable of Contents1. The legal framework: transnational crime, law of the sea, and migration control; 2. The legal framework: human rights and refugee law; 3. Acting against migrant smuggling: capacities and limitations; 4. State responsibility and migrant smuggling; 5. Criminalization of migrant smuggling; 6. Migrant smuggling by sea: interdiction and rescue; 7. Prevention and international cooperation to combat migrant smuggling; 8. Obligations of protection, assistance, and response; 9. Obligations relating to detention of smuggled migrants; 10. Return of smuggled migrants.
