War Crimes and the Culture of Peace

More about the book

Focusing on the evolving relationship between international law and criminal law, Justice Arbour argues for a future where personal accountability is linked to peace in the context of International War Crimes Tribunals. By emphasizing crime as a breach of peace, her approach aims to enhance public understanding of the underlying causes of such crimes. This perspective seeks to reshape procedural models for tribunals, ensuring that the principles of justice align more closely with the pursuit of lasting peace.
