|a This book explains, simply and without resort to legalistic analysis, what amounts to a war crime today. It will alert soldiers to the orders they should not obey (and their rights of conscientious objection) and warn officers what will make them criminals when they are tried in years to come. It will give journalists and diplomats the confidence to describe war crimes. NGOs will have the power to refute government or military denials. Students of politics, law and international affairs will better understand this increasingly important subject within their discipline.
Most importantly, citizens will learn how to identify and stigmatise the illegal actions of military forces in their own and other countries and become better informed about the legality of exporting arms to forces that may use them to commit war crimes.
The need for this book is underlined by the fact that there is no equivalent in circulation; military manuals are tedious to read and publication is restricted, while books on war law are lengthy and academic. This work by Geoffrey Robertson KC makes the issues comprehensible in an authoritative and unbiased way.
