The Oxford Handbook of International Criminal Law
Oxford University Press (Verlag)
978-0-19-882520-3 (ISBN)
In the past twenty years, international criminal law has become one of the main areas of international legal scholarship and practice. Most textbooks in the field describe the evolution of international criminal tribunals, the elements of the core international crimes, the applicable modes of liability and defences, and the role of states in prosecuting international crimes.
The Oxford Handbook of International Criminal Law, however, takes a theoretically informed and refreshingly critical look at the most controversial issues in international criminal law, challenging prevailing practices, orthodoxies, and received wisdoms. Some of the contributions to the Handbook come from scholars within the field, but many come from outside of international criminal law, or indeed from outside law itself. The chapters are grounded in history, geography, philosophy, and international relations. The result is a Handbook that expands the discipline and should fundamentally alter how international criminal law is understood.
Kevin Jon Heller is Associate Professor of Public International Law at the University of Amsterdam and Professor of Law at the Australian National University. He holds a PhD in law from Leiden University and a JD with distinction from Stanford Law School. His research interests focus on international criminal law, international humanitarian law, and the use of force, with a particular emphasis on the methodologies employed by those fields. His books include The Nuremberg Military Tribunals and the Origins of International Criminal Law (OUP, 2011); The Hidden Histories of War Crimes Trials (OUP, 2013) (edited with Gerry Simpson); and The Handbook of Comparative Criminal Law (Stanford University Press, 2011) (edited with Markus Dubber). Frédéric Mégret is a Full Professor and William Dawson Scholar at the Faculty of Law, McGill University. He holds an LLB from King's College London, a DEA from the Université de Paris I (Panthéon Sorbonne), and a PhD from the Graduate Institute of International Studies (Geneva), as well as a diploma from Sciences Po Paris. His research focuses on international criminal justice, the laws of war, international human rights law, transitional justice, and general international law. Sarah MH Nouwen is Reader in International Law at the University of Cambridge, Co-Deputy Director and Fellow of the Lauterpacht Centre for International Law, and a Fellow of Pembroke College. As of September 2020, she will be a Professor of International Law at the European University Institute in Florence. Sarah is also an Editor-in-Chief of the European Journal of International Law. She is the author of Complementarity in the Line of Fire: The Catalysing Effect of the International Criminal Court in Uganda and Sudan (CUP, 2013), an empirical study into the effects of the complementarity principle in the Rome Statute on the legal systems in Uganda and Sudan. She has advised the Netherlands Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Department for International Development and several NGOs. In 2010-2011 she was seconded as Senior Legal Advisor to the African Union High-Level Implementation Panel on Sudan. Jens David Ohlin is Vice Dean and Professor of Law at Cornell Law School. Professor Ohlin's work stands at the intersection of four related fields: criminal law, criminal procedure, public international law, and the laws of war. Trained as both a lawyer and a philosopher, his research has tackled questions as diverse as criminal conspiracy and the punishment of collective criminal action, the philosophical foundations of international law, and the role of new technologies in warfare, including cyberwar, remotely piloted drones, and autonomous weapons. He is the author of the forthcoming monograph, Election Interference: International Law and the Future of Democracy (CUP, 2020). Darryl Robinson is Associate Professor at Queen's University Faculty of Law (Canada). He was a Hauser Scholar at New York University School of Law (LL.M International Legal Studies), a Gold Medalist at the UWO Faculty of Law, and a clerk at the Supreme Court of Canada. He served as a Legal Officer at Foreign Affairs Canada from 1997-2004. His work in the creation of the International Criminal Court and in the development of Canada's new war crimes legislation earned him a Minister's Citation and a Minister's Award for Foreign Policy Excellence. He is a co-author of Robert Cryer et al, Introduction to International Criminal Law and Procedure (CUP, 2019, 4th edition), and was the 2013-14 recipient of the Antonio Cassese Prize for International Criminal Legal Studies.
