Stromseth, David Wippman, Rosa Brooks Can might make
rights? : building the rule of law after military interventions, Cambridge University Press, 2006. K3171.S77
2006 . SUMMARY: This book looks at why it's so difficult
to create 'the rule of law' in post-conflict societies such as Iraq and
Afghanistan, and offers insights into how policy-makers and field-workers
can improve future rule of law efforts. Speaking to readers who try to make
sense of the international community's problems in Iraq and elsewhere, this
book shows how a narrow focus on building institutions such as courts and
legislatures could miss the more complex cultural issues that affect societal
commitment to the values associated with the rule of law. The authors show
the interconnectedness between the rule of law and other post-conflict priorities,
such as reestablishing security. Finally the authors outline a pragmatic,
synergistic approach to the rule of law which promises to reinvigorate debates
about transitions to democracy and post-conflict reconstruction. |

J. Paust et al. Human rights module : on crimes against humanity,
genocide, other crimes against human rights, and war crimes. 2nd ed. Carolina Academic Press, c2006. K3240.H8572
2006. SUMMARY: Being the revised
extracts from the forthcoming International Criminal Law (3 ed. 2007), this
new edition updates and expands the first.
It 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. There is also a separate chapter on sanctions against Karadzic
that applies many of the core crimes in both criminal and civil sanctions
arenas with respect to the conflict in Bosnia-Herzegovina. Author Jordan
J. Paust presents cases and materials in Part One and documents in Part
Two. This book is not only a great
resource for courses focusing on crimes against humanity, genocide, and
other crimes against human rights (and/or war crimes), readers interested
in human rights will also find it informative. |
