It complements the usual accounts of the substantive law of those international crimes tried to date before international criminal courts and of the institutional law of those courts with in-depth analyses of fundamental formal juridical concepts such as an 'international crime' and an 'international criminal court'; with detailed examinations of the many international crimes provided for by way of multilateral treaty and of the attendant obligations and rights of states parties; and with sustained attention to the implementation of international criminal law at the national level. Direct, concise, and precise, 'International criminal law' should prove a valuable resource for scholars and practitioners of the discipline of international criminal law UR - http://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy1509/2015937788-t.html UR - http://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy1509/2015937788-b.html UR - http://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy1509/2015937788-d.html ER -
