Description

This book traces the evolution of crimes against humanity (CAH) and their application from the end of World War I to the present day, in terms of both historic legal analysis and subject-matter content.

The first part of the book addresses general issues pertaining to the categorization of CAH in normative jurisprudential and doctrinal terms.

This is followed by an analysis of the specific contents of CAH, describing its historic phases going through international criminal tribunals, mixed model tribunals and the International Criminal Court.

The book examines the general parts and defenses of the crime, along with the history and jurisprudence of both international and national prosecutions.

For the first time, a list of all countries that have enacted national legislation specifically directed at CAH is collected, along with all of the national prosecutions that have occurred under national legislation up to 2010.
