ニュルンベルク裁判や東京裁判から、旧ユーゴ国際戦犯法廷まで、戦争犯罪や人道に対する罪を裁くための制度的枠組みの歩みを跡づける。Selected by Antonio Cassese, the first President of the Yugoslavia Tribunal, this four-volume collection assembles the best scholarship from the time of Nuremberg and Tokyo to the present day. Not only does the set brings together ground-breaking material sourced from a wide range of academic journals, edited collections, textbooks, and monographs, many of which are now hard to obtain, the editors also illuminate the much broader and fundamental issues related to impunity, guilt, restitution, and social reconciliation.
