The scholarly significance of the book is understated by the use of the word "guide" in the title. . . . This is much more than a guide to the Hague Tribunal. It is an in-depth treatment of the creation and functioning of this important new court. Lt. Col. H. Wayne Elliott, The Journal of National Security Law, Vol. 1, No. 1 This definitive "insider's view" of the Statute and its Rules of Procedure and Evidence takes into account existing international law and practice, the proposals submitted by states and organizations, and the views expressed by members of the Security Council in adopting the Statute. The text also places the International Tribunal in its historical context as the first international criminal tribunal created since the 1945 Nuremberg and Tokyo Tribunals, and as a major achievement in the UN's long-standing project of an international regime of criminal law. Published under the Transnational Publishers imprint.

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.

Constitutional Law

This edition updates and expands the first. This problem-oriented coursebook is designed to expose students to the most significant current legal issues relating to international organizations in a stimulating format. Each chapter begins with a role-playing exercise or simulation in the form of an introductory problem, which places the subsequent material in an exciting and realistic context. The Second Edition updates all of the existing chapters, and adds new chapters addressing organizations not covered in the First Edition, including the World Trade Organization, the International Monetary Fund, the World Bank, and Interpol. In addition, it focuses on timely new issues, including the legality of the 2003 US invasion of Iraq, protection of cultural property and artifacts, and balancing human rights and national security in the context of the war on terrorism. The book covers issues relevant to many kinds of international organizations, focusing mainly on international organizations that are within the U.N. system, including the U.N. Secretariat, General Assembly, Security Council, Sanctions Committee, Credentials Committee, International Court of Justice, Human Rights Commission, International Financial Institutions, and International Criminal Tribunals. Scharf addresses such issues as political obstacles to the effective functioning of international organizations, interpretation of the Charters and regulations governing international organizations, questions of financing, credential challenges, succession problems, privileges and immunities disputes, efforts at Security Council reform, application and interpretation of U.N. sanctions resolutions, U.N. peacekeeping controversies, the issue of humanitarian intervention, and the role of international law in U.N. organized peace negotiations.

The Law of International Organizations: Problems and Materials (Law Casebook)

Saddam Hussein. Derided as the Butcher of Baghdad, he was charged with the mostserious crimes known to mankind. On October 19, 2005, the ruthless Iraqi leader and seven of his henchmen began a legal battle of epic proportions, with their lives literally in the balance. The first of several planned trials before the Iraqi High Tribunal focused onthe destruction of the town of Dujail and the torture and murder of its inhabitants in retaliation for a 1982 failed assassination attempt. Billed by the international media as the real trial of the century, the televised proceedings were punctuated by gripping testimony of atrocities, controversial judicial rulings, assassinations of defense counsel, resignation of judges, scathing outbursts, allegations of mistreatment, hunger strikes, and even underwear appearances. Was it a mistake to try Saddam in Baghdad before a panel of Iraqi judges? Was the Iraqi High Tribunal a legitimate judicial institution? Were the proceedings fundamentally fair? Did the judges react properly to the defendants attempts to derail the proceedings? Did the Prosecution prove its case? Did Saddam have any valid defenses? What precedents did this extraordinary trial set? Saddam on Trial: Understanding and Debating the Iraqi HighTribunal provides the reader with a thorough understanding of these and a host of other issues related to the Saddam Trial. The text offers a series of essays, in which leading international and criminal law experts discuss and debate more than thirty discrete questions raised by the trial. The book also includes a psychological profile of Saddam Hussein, a chronology of events related to the charges, a glossary of key legal terms, a synopsis of the charges and applicable law, a summary of the evidence and testimony, and English translations of the Tribunal s Statute, Rules, and other relevant instruments. Saddam on Trial is designed for law students, undergraduates, academics, journalists, and general readers. The book will be useful as a supplement for any law school course on International Law, International Criminal Law, International Humanitarian Law, or National Security Law. It is also suitable for undergraduate Foreign Relations, Public Policy, or Criminal Justice courses.
