Holocaust Denial and the Lawby Robert A. Kahn
Palgrave Macmillan 2006; US$ 98.00From 1978 1996 Holocaust denial emerged as a major concern for the liberal democracies of Europe and North America. This period also saw the first prosecutions of Holocaust deniers. But these prosecutions often ran into trouble. Holocaust Denial and the Law relates how courts in four countries (Canada, France, Germany and the United States) resolved the dilemmas posed by Holocaust denial litigation. It also describes how, in the United States, student editors had to decide whether to run ads denying the Holocaust. The book concludes that a given country's resolution of these dilemmas turns on its specific legal traditions and historical experiences. more...
Trial Justiceby Tim Allen
Zed Books 2006; US$ 22.95The International Criminal Court has run into serious problems with its first big case - the situation in northern Uganda. There is no doubt that appalling crimes have occurred here. Joseph Konys Lords Resistance Army have abducted thousands, many of them children, and have systematically tortured, raped, maimed and killed their victims. Nevertheless, the ICC has confronted outright hostility from a wide range of groups, including traditional leaders, representatives of the Catholic and Anglican Churches, and non-governmental organizations. Even the Ugandan government, which invited the ICC to become involved in 2003, has been expressing serious reservations. For many, the Court is spoiling the peace process and is making continued... more...

Sentencing War Crimes and Crimes against Humanity under the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslaviaby O. Olusanya
Europa Law Publishing 2005; US$ 90.00This book focuses on sentencing war crimes and crimes against humanity under the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia. Currently there appears to be no knowledge of how the sentencing process works for both categories of international crimes. How does one distinguish, for the purpose of imposing punishment of different degrees of severity, war crime offences from similar offences when committed as a crime against humanity?. After all, it appears to make no difference to the victim whether offences such as murder, torture, or imprisonment, are committed as war crimes or as crimes against humanity. Instead, what seems to be more important is that the victim was murdered, tortured or imprisoned. On the other hand, even if... more...
The Missing Italian Nurembergby Michele Battini
Palgrave Macmillan 2007; US$ 85.00This book explores how the trial of the entire military command of the Nazi power structure in Italy, prepared by the Allies following the Nuremberg mode, came to be replaced by a few contradictory trials of very minor significance. This resulted in an enormous historical misrepresentation of the Nazi occupation of Italy. more...
