Reviews

Advance praise: 'A meticulous study that provides sound guidance to legal scholars and practitioners who have to consider when and how leaders incur personal responsibility under international criminal law for deliberately trampling on the economic and social rights of their people.' Jan Arno Hessbruegge, former Legal Advisor to the United Nations Commission of Inquiry on Human Rights in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea Advance praise: 'This important book breaks new ground in its thoughtful and sometimes provocative analysis of the role of economic, social and cultural rights within international criminal law. Its impact on the conduct of prosecutions and our collective vision of the responsibilities of the International Criminal Court should not be underestimated.' William A. Schabas, Middlesex University Advance praise: 'The significance of this book is that it makes a very impassioned and coherent argument for paying adequate attention to economic, social and cultural rights in the context of international criminal law.' Andrew B. Clapham, Graduate Institute of International Law and Development Studies, Geneva
