This book provides a survey of key issues in the study and management of War Crimes for academics, practitioners and policy makers and contextualises current issues in both a chronological historical dimension and a historical methodology. Approaching this topic in such a way allows the author to highlight new issues, as well as continuing issues and, by differentiating between them, helps the reader to understand them better.

In essence, this volume constitutes an entirely new approach, pioneering War Crimes as a discrete discipline and not simply as a sub-discipline of international law, politics, international criminal law or history. This book establishes an intellectual framework, drawing upon methodological perspectives from criminal justice, socio-legal studies and that pioneered by the Centre for Contemporary British History (CCBH at King’s), to help us understand where we stand today.
