This research suggests that a more focused approach based on a much clearer definition of these crimes would help to remedy deficiencies at the different stages of international justice in relation to these crimes.International humanitarian law series ;52.1389-6776Rape as a weapon of warSex crimes (International law)WomenViolence againstRape as a weapon of war.Sex crimes (International law)WomenViolence against.345.02532Ward Caterina E.
