Justice, Politics, and Rights at the War Crimes Tribunals
William Schabas
Reviews and Awards
"Schabas has truly outdone himself in his latest offering. Rather than throwing out the laptop (with the guitar), Schabass work should encourage others to pick up the pen, the phone or the tablet and work to fulfil Ferenczs goalsa world of tolerance through, at least in part, international criminal lawjust as Schabas continues to do." - Matthew Kane, International Affairs 89
"Schabas has long contributed to the development of effective world law. He has taken on the task and made it his own, standing shoulder to shoulder with the likes of Cherif Bassiouni, Antonio Cassese, Hans Corell, Michael Scharf and David Scheffer. His text is plainly intended to appeal to and inform, not only academics, but also those with less direct expertise in the field. This is not to suggest that it is somehow written at an introductory level, or that it can be passed over by those more familiar with the issues addressed in the book. Rather, it seeks to expand the audience, educating those interested in creating a safer and more tolerant world on key components within the field of international criminal law, while providing substantive arguments for discussion among academic circles." - Matthew Kane, International Affairs 89
"Schabas proves an expansive (historical) background knowledge and provides the reader with a fresh view"
"to a number of âgivensâ in international criminal law." - Jane A. Hofbauer, Austrian Review of International and European Law
"In Unimaginable Atrocities, Schabas has produced perhaps his greatest work in a prodigious collection of extraordinary contributions to the field." - Matthew Kane, International Affairs 89
