A must reference for the practitioner, judge, student, and serious scholar, this revised and updated work provides a thorough and readable text on various types and possibilities of incorporation of international law into our domestic legal processes. The second edition has retained and updated the first six chapters from the first edition and contains the most detailed exposition to date of cases, patterns of use, and trends concerning traditional topics such as customary international law and its incorporation into U.S. law; self-executing treaties and direct and indirect legal effects of treaties; the last-in-time rule and exceptions thereto; priorities among generally coequal laws of the land; presidential powers and duties; remedies or civil and criminal sanctions; and use of human right precepts throughout U.S. history (including attention to actual types of human rights utilized, the right of access to courts, and the right to an effective remedy). Chapters on human rights and the ninth amendment; jurisdiction and enforcement responsibilities with respect to international criminal law; and the peace power have also been retained and updated, while portions of other chapters have been shifted to other sections of the treatise or deleted. The comprehensive and highly useful index has been retained. The treatise is unique in terms of areas of coverage and its attention to detail, including heavily documented research into literally thousands of U.S. cases.

International Criminal Law Documents Supplement

The Human Rights Module provides an up-to-date exploration of the "core" international crimes most often associated with human rights infractions for those interested in human rights and for use in international law courses, human rights courses, or seminars. "Core" crimes include crimes against humanity, genocide, other crimes against human rights (such as torture, criminalized race discrimination, apartheid, hostage-taking, and disappearances), and war crimes. There is also a separate chapter on sanctions against Karadzic that applies many of the core crimes in both criminal and civil sanctions arenas (before the International Criminal Tribunal for former Yugoslavia and the U.S. federal courts) with respect to one setting: the conflict in Bosnia-Herzegovina. This book is an excellent resource for courses focusing on crimes against humanity, genocide, and other crimes against human rights (and/or war crimes). Author Jordan J. Paust presents cases and materials in Part One and documents in Part Two. These sections may be used separately or in different groupings as relevant to particular needs. Non-scholarly readers interested in human rights will also find the book informative.

The fourth edition has been significantly updated, especially to reflect case trends in the International Criminal Court and the International Criminal Tribunals for Former Yugoslavia and for Rwanda (encompassing, among other matters, individual responsibility, defenses, war crimes, genocide, and other crimes against humanity). Some of the chapters have new sub-subtitles and relevant domestic cases have been added or noted in various chapters. There are also additions to the Documents Supplement.

This Documents Supplement accompanies the casebook International Criminal Law, Fourth Edition (2013). It is the most thorough compilation of documents available for classroom use with respect to international criminal law and related aspects of more general international law and human rights law. It is the first documents supplement to contain the Arab Charter on Human Rights and the Amendment to the Rome Statute of the ICC with respect to the Crime of Aggression.

This new edition of the Human Rights Module updates and expands the first and second. Within Part One, the book provides a relatively concise and up-to-date exploration of the ''core'' international crimes most often associated with human rights infractions for those interested in human rights and for use in international law courses, human rights courses, or seminars. The Module is unique because it is relatively compact and contains needed documents. ''Core'' crimes include crimes against humanity, genocide, other crimes against human rights (such as torture, criminalized race discrimination, apartheid, hostage-taking, and disappearances), and war crimes. There is a new introductory chapter on Human Rights Law that provides sections on the general nature and sources of international law, individual responsibility and general human rights. A final chapter focuses on civil sanctions in the U.S. for human rights violations, with attention to relevant federal statutes and various U.S. cases. Part Two of the book contains the many documents needed for students. The Module allows professors to cover basic areas and to supplement a course or seminar experience with other materials of their choice.
