This book explores the promises and limitations of holding individuals accountable for violations of international human rights and humanitarian law. It analyses the principal crimes under international law, such as genocide, crimes against humanity, and war crimes, and appraises both prosecutorial and other key mechanisms developed to bring individuals to justice. After applying their conclusions in a detailed case study, the authors offer a series of compelling conclusions on the prospects for accountability. This fully updated new edition contains expanded coverage of national trials under universal jurisdiction, international criminal tribunals including the International Criminal Court, new hybrid tribunals in Cambodia and elsewhere, truth commissions, and lustration. It also explores individual accountability for terrorist acts and for abuses committed in the name of counter-terrorism policy.

In a faraway peaceful kingdom, a sweet and gentle prince joyfully plays by an old knotted tree with all children, not just other princes. But when a Dark Spirit sees the prince so happy, he becomes angry and casts a spell that makes the young prince very ill. After the prince’s parents call on the Good Fairy of the Light for help, she turns him into a magical toy in order to save him. No one sees any reason to tell the prince he is actually a toy and not a real boy—until the Dark Spirit realizes what has happened. In this charming story, the children of a kingdom learn a valuable lesson in how to treat their toys—and each other—after a fairy works her magic on a prince.
