Barrie Sander is Assistant Professor of International Justice at the Faculty of Governance and Global Affairs at Leiden University. He has written extensively in the field of international criminal law, as well as on governance challenges at the intersection of digital technology and international law. In 2019, his article, 'History on Trial: Historical Narrative Pluralism Within and Beyond International Criminal Courts', was awarded the Young Scholar Prize by International and Comparative Law Quarterly. He holds a Ph.D. in International Law (summa cum laude avec félicitations du jury) from the Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies (IHEID).

This book is a well-informed, meticulously researched and incessantly inquisitive contribution to what might be broadly characterised as the historiography of international criminal law. How do international criminal courts go about constructing historical narratives, how are these histories received and what happens to history after its encounter with international law, and international law after its encounter with history? By offering us a series of deft and sometimes pugnacious answers to these questions, Dr Sander enriches the field considerably.
