‘The book delves expertly and critically into a prominent, albeit specialized and sometimes prosaic, mechanism of corporate accountability for human rights abuses. It is well-written and accessible. The coupling of succinct case histories with insightful and critical commentary of all major corporate international criminal law (ICL) trials and related developments means that this volume should be of interest to a range of audiences, from legal and non-legal backgrounds. It is a wonderful resource for educators, scholars and practitioners alike. Whether or not the reader agrees with Kyriakakis’ views, and her optimism, one thing is for sure: we will all be better placed to contemplate the future of corporate accountability under ICL having digested this book.’

• Contents: Preface 1. Industry and atrocity: the business and human rights context 2. Industry at Nuremberg: justice in the post World War II era 3. Industry at Rome: the International Criminal Court 4. Industry at The Hague and beyond: ad hoc, hybrid and domestic courts 5. Industry and transitional justice: beyond the criminal trial 6. Industry and international criminal justice: evaluating the challenges Index
