Classical Morality in International Peremptory Criminal Law
This book argues that if law is not underpinned by a moral understanding, the moral law itself is violated. It objects to impunity for those who contravene international peremptory criminal law, reaffirming universal principles of truth, equality, and the essential value of man.
Confessing the International Rights of Children
This book brings together all international documents significant to the protection of the rights of children. While children’s rights obviously exist, the implementation of those rights is not so easy.
Corpus Juris of Islamic International Criminal Justice
This pioneering work explores the intersection of Islamic and international criminal law. It argues for creating an Islamic international criminal court to prevent impunity for atrocities committed in the name of Islam, examining its jurisdiction, procedures, and sanctions.
Jurisprudence of International Criminal Justice
This volume examines international criminal justice, with a focus on the International Criminal Court. It demands the prosecution of those who escape justice due to their political or military power, arguing that the cycle of impunity must be abolished for all.
Prohibition of Sexual Exploitation of Children Constituting Obligation Erga Omnes
Though the value of human integrity is increasingly consolidated in law, sexual exploitation of children remains widespread. This book analyzes the legal framework and the international responsibility of states to eliminate the crime, and to prosecute and punish offenders.
This book uses Kant’s moral philosophy to argue that international criminal law is a ‘mirage.’ The Security Council’s self-interest and pursuit of economic gain prevent genuine international morality, making justice and human rights crucial, yet ultimately unattainable.
