Cour pénale internationale et Cour internationale de justice
Les mandats d’arrêt émis contre Benjamin Netanyahu et Yoav Gallant sont une première, même s’ils ne devraient pas être exécutés dans un avenir proche. La question de l’immunité se pose en raison de l’incohérence entre la jurisprudence de la Cour pénale internationale et celle de la Cour internationale de justice. C’est cette dernière qui fait soudain preuve d’un dynamisme sans précédent
The Right to Life and the Progressive Abolition of the Death Penalty
This chapter begins with the contention that global norms surrounding the death penalty have evolved considerably over the last fifty years. It reviews the extent to which international human rights treaties, including the United Nations (UN) International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR), and some of the regional human rights treaties, allow for and indeed arguably require the progressive abolition of the death penalty.

The Contribution of the Eichmann Trial to International Law
The trial of Adolf Eichmann was poorly received by many contemporary observers, who felt that it bent the law beyond recognition in several key areas. With the renaissance of international criminal law in recent decades, the handling of difficult issues by the District Court of Jerusalem and the Supreme Court has been shown to fare rather well. The understanding of the relationship between crimes against humanity and genocide by the Israeli court…
The Barbaric Punishment
In this volume, Swedish human rights activist and political figure, Hans Göran Franck, examines the administration of the death penalty from a historical perspective. The author's opinions are based on his lifelong work and devotion to abolishing the 'barbaric punishment'. Building upon previously unpublished material and considerable detail drawn from Franck's personal experiences, it focuses on both the progressive developments within European …
