Summary:"This book provides a rich reservoir of thought-provoking original articles written by international criminal justice, policing, and legal scholars.

The articles are drawn from historical, contemporary, and controversial topics. The main objectives are to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of various international issues, from historical to contemporary perspectives; incorporate topics that are important, yet ignored in many international criminal justice books; and generate scholarly discussion among students"--
