This unique textbook provides an accessible introduction to a fascinating subject area. Written with student needs at its heart, innovative features such as ''Counterpoint'' and ''Pause for reflection'' boxes highlight current debates and areas worthy of more detailed analysis, providing students with the tools they need to develop their knowledge and start thinking critically about the law. Learning outcomes open each chapter, and are complemented by closing summaries to further support student understanding.Structured in four parts, the book first sets out the key international law principles which assume special significance in relation to international criminal law before going on to consider international criminal tribunals, the prosecution of international crimes, and the ''core'' international crimes which have been prosecuted to date. Finally, consideration is given to issues such as legal defences and immunities under international law.Written by an outstanding scholar and tea
