The Sierra Leone Special Court and its Legacy
The Special Court for Sierra Leone (SCSL) is the third modern international criminal tribunal supported by the United Nations and the first to be situated where the crimes were committed. This timely, important and comprehensive book is the first to critically assess the impact and legacy of the SCSL for Africa and international criminal law. Contributors include leading scholars and respected practitioners with inside knowledge of the tribunal, who analyze cutting-edge and controversial issues with significant implications for international criminal law and transitional justice. These include joint criminal enterprise; forced marriage; enlisting and using child soldiers; attacks against United Nations peacekeepers; the tension between truth commissions and criminal trials in the first country to simultaneously have the two; and the questions of whether it is permissible under international law for states to unilaterally confer blanket amnesties to local perpetrators of universally condemned international crimes.
Atrocity Crimes, Children and International Criminal Courts
This book shows how international criminal courts have paid only limited and inconsistent attention to atrocity crimes affecting children.

It reviews whether and how different international and hybrid criminal jurisdictions have considered international crimes committed against or by children. The book also considers how international criminal justice can help contribute to the recognition of the specific impact that international crimes have on children, whether as v...
Gender and International Criminal Law
This book analyses narrow definitions of gender in international criminal law. Jurisprudence blind spots are examined, such as sexual violence against men, and the gendered dimensions of forced marriage and reproductive crimes. It promotes a more nuanced notion of gender to improve accountability for war crimes, genocide and aggression.
Legal Theory in the Crucible of Constitutional Justice
Constitutional adjudication straddles law and politics, legal and political theory. Referring to legal controversies in Canada (free expression), Ireland (sexual morality) and Italy (religion), this book examines how constitutional judgements rely upon unarticulated political commitments. This interaction between "law" and "morality" allows us to escape the dichotomy of natural law versus positivism in a time when judges increasingly act as moral guardians.
