Reviews
'This timely, valuable and thought-provoking contribution to our understanding of the vibrant new subject that is international criminal law is a great addition to the literature and to our understanding. Professor Bart Brown deserves real appreciation for bringing it together.' -- Philippe Sands QC, University College London and Matrix Chambers, UK
'The Research Handbook is a comprehensive up-to-date guide to one of the youngest yet most dynamic areas of international law. It tackles the pertinent challenges and opportunities, starting with the classical issues like categories of international crimes and complementarity, going on to address the problems ahead including the Guantanamo regime, crimes against women and the status of private security contractors. The Handbook will be a valuable source for both general and advanced international criminal law research.
