Download or read book Furthering Justice Or Promoting Impunity in Africa written by Martha Bedane Guraro and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2012 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about critically analyzing the proposal of the African Union in creating a criminal jurisdiction in the African Court of Justice and Human Rights (ACJHR). This proposal, if implemented, will enable the ACJHR to try international crimes such as genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity when it is committed in Africa. As it can easily be anticipated the proposal will immediately pose the question about the possible conflict of jurisdiction with the already existing International Criminal Court (ICC) to try these international crimes especially with those African countries which accepted and signed the Rome Statute establishing the ICC. To this effect the book tries to see the pros and cons of this proposal and as well it shows the various questions and complaints that Africans have towards the ICC.

Download or read book Anti Impunity and the Human Rights Agenda written by Karen Engle and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2016-12-15 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the twenty-first century, fighting impunity has become both the rallying cry and a metric of progress for human rights. The new emphasis on criminal prosecution represents a fundamental change in the positions and priorities of students and practitioners of human rights and transitional justice: it has become almost unquestionable common sense that criminal punishment is a legal, political, and pragmatic imperative for addressing human rights violations. This book challenges that common sense. It does so by documenting and critically analyzing the trend toward an anti-impunity norm in a variety of institutional and geographical contexts, with an eye toward the interaction between practices at the global and local levels. Together, the chapters demonstrate how this laser focus on anti-impunity has created blind spots in practice and in scholarship that result in a constricted response to human rights violations, a narrowed conception of justice, and an impoverished approach to peace.

Download or read book International Justice Against Impunity written by Yves Beigbeder and published by Martinus Nijhoff Publishers. This book was released on 2005 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume reviews the achievements and limitations of the International Criminal Tribunals for the former Yugoslavia and Rwanda, and the creation of mixed national/international courts: the Special Court for Sierra Leone and the Cambodia Tribunal. The major, unexpected and promising judiciary innovation is however the creation of the International Criminal Court in 1998, supported by the UN, European Union members and other countries, effectively promoted by NGOs, but strongly opposed by the USA. The Court will have to show that it is a fair and valuable instrument in fighting impunity at the international level.
Download or read book The International Criminal Court and the End of Impunity in Kenya written by Lionel Nichols and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-02-02 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The period immediately following Kenya's 2007 presidential election left a shocking trail of atrocities, with over 1,000 people dead and countless thousands left victimised and displaced. In response, the International Criminal Court began a series of investigations and trials, promising no impunity for even the highest ranking perpetrators. When the country's president and vice-president were implicated in the crimes, the case took on worldwide significance. The International Criminal Court and the End of Impunity in Kenya is a five-year study addressing critical human rights issues with a global reach and is the first detailed account of the ICC's intervention in Kenya. It probes the relationship between the ICC and state institutions, known as positive complementarity, and asks whether the ICC's intervention led to an end to impunity. The author provides comprehensive analysis of the Waki Commission's sealed envelope, the government's attempts to establish a special tribunal and the trials in The Hague. He also provides in depth consideration of any influence the ICC's intervention may have had on the passing of a new constitution, the establishment of a truth commission and important reforms to the judiciary, police and witness protection programme. Documenting the effects of these interventions on the Kenyan people, and on the country's legal and judicial systems, the book provides vital lessons in global justice as it: •Details the ICC's involvement in Kenya in the aftermath of extreme violence and instability •Evaluates the ICC prosecutor's strategy of positive complementarity •Identifies optimal conditions for positive complementarity to be effective •Links cultures of impunity to state-sponsored corruption •Explores the possible impact of the ICC on national and global policy •Discusses implications in responding to future crimes against humanity Replete with official government sources, The International Criminal Court and the End of Impunity in Kenya is necessary reading for researchers and practitioners working in public international law, particularly those specialising in conflict and post-conflict states.
