It provides a systematic and theoretically rigorous examination of whether these trials are used as tools for political consolidation or whether justice is their primary purpose. The consideration of cases begins with the trial of Charles I of England and goes through the presidency of George W. Bush, including the trials of Saddam Hussein and those arising from the War on Terror. The book concludes that political consolidation is the primary concern of these trials - a point that runs contrary to the popular perception of the trials and their stated justification. Through the consideration of war crimes trials, this book makes a contribution to our understanding of power and conflict resolution and illuminates the developmental path of war crimes tribunals.The Rise & Fall of War Crimes TrialsWar crime trialsHistoryInternational criminal courtsWar crime trialsHistory.International criminal courts.341.6/9Smith Charles Anthony1961-1027905UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910452252003321The rise and fall of war crimes trials2443648UNINA
