The Book focuses on four post-conflicts situations in Kosovo, East Timor,
Sierra Leone and Cambodia. Recognized scholars and practitioners analyse
if and how accountability for serious human rights violations is being
enforced. Thus, the Book is an interdisciplinary inquiry examining the
nature of each of these conflicts and the legal framework established for
addressing individual criminal responsibility. This methodology provides
a combined reading of events, a deeper insight into the reasons for the
urge for accountability for individual criminal responsibility. In addition,
the Book serves as a sourcebook containing an indexed compendium of relevant
instruments relating to the new approaches of international criminal justice
applied in the countries mentioned.
