International Crimes, Local Justice

Résumé du livre

"For victims of international crimes -- war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide -- the best hope for justice can be found locally, in their national jurisdictions. But national criminal justice systems are not always willing and able to take on such an imposing task. Increasingly, the international community has committed to assisting states in doing so. As the international community takes up the many challenges that this entails, there is a need for guidance in how policymakers, donors, and implementers should best support states in providing local justice for international crimes. This handbook is part of an ongoing effort to provide just such guidance. It is meant as a practical aid and a reference work that covers large policy questions of interest to policymakers as well as more technical issues encountered by rule-of-law programmers and implementers."--Page 4 of cover.
