Pinochet And International Human Rights Litigation, Curtis A. Bradley, Jack L. Goldsmith
Pinochet And International Human Rights Litigation, Curtis A. Bradley, Jack L. Goldsmith
Michigan Law Review
The British House of Lords recently considered whether Augusto Pinochet was subject to arrest and possible extradition to Spain for alleged acts of torture and other egregious conduct carried out during his reign as Chile's head of state. The Law Lords held that a large majority of the charges against Pinochet were not proper grounds for extradition under British law. They also held, however, that Pinochet could potentially be extradited for alleged acts of torture committed after Britain's 1988 ratifica· tion of the Convention Against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment. In reaching this latter conclusion, …
War Crimes And The Limits Of Legalism, Gary Jonathan Bass
War Crimes And The Limits Of Legalism, Gary Jonathan Bass
Michigan Law Review
In April 1945, Sir John Simon, Britain's Lord Chancellor, drew up a memorandum that was the last gasp in the diplomatic struggle against Nuremberg. Under American pressure, and despite British objections, the Allies were poised to agree to put the Axis leadership on trial for war crimes. In the kind of magnificent understatement that the British government could sometimes inadvertently achieve, it was entitled "The Argument for Summary Process against Hitler & Co." The memorandum was a series of arguments to be used by the British delegation at the San Francisco conference in a last-ditch effort to win over the …

ILSA Journal of International & Comparative Law
The judgment issued on September 2, 1998 by the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda (hereinafter ICTR) finding Jean-Paul Akayesu guilty on various charges of genocide and crimes against humanity is likely to please those who have long struggled for the progressive development and effective enforcement of international criminal law.

Comments In The International Law Association Panel On The Yugoslav Tribunal: November 13, 1998, Theodor Meron
ILSA Journal of International & Comparative Law
I have been asked to assess briefly the track record of the Yugoslav tribunal. I would like to mention three aspects: the tribunal as an institution; the tribunal as a court of law; and, finally, the contribution of the tribunal to deterrence of crimes and to reconciliation between the peoples of the region.

Never Again: Questioning The Yugoslav And Rwanda Tribunals, Makau Wa Mutua
Never Again: Questioning The Yugoslav And Rwanda Tribunals, Makau Wa Mutua
Journal Articles
Fifty years after Nuremberg, the international community has again decided to experiment with international war crimes tribunals. The stated purpose for the establishment of both the Yugoslav and Rwanda Tribunals by the United Nations are to “put an end” to serious crimes such as genocide and to “take effective measures to bring to justice the persons who are responsible for them.” This piece argues that both assumptions are unrealistic and that such tribunals will have little or no effect on human rights violations of such enormous barbarity. In addition, this piece questions the motivations behind the formulation of the tribunals …

Obstacles To The Creation Of A Permanent War Crimes Tribunal, Christopher L. Blakesley
Obstacles To The Creation Of A Permanent War Crimes Tribunal, Christopher L. Blakesley
Scholarly Works
Individual liability for war crimes is difficult to enforce and is unlikely to be accepted uniformly by states.
Individual criminal responsibility is the cornerstone of any international war crimes tribunal. Nuremberg Principle I provides that “[a]ny person who commits an act which constitutes a crime under international law is responsible therefor and liable to punishment.” Acts by heads of state or other government officials, even if committed in an official capacity, may not constitute an immunity defense to or mitigate criminality. These officials, therefore, could also be held responsible for offenses committed pursuant to their orders. Additionally, liability for criminal …

The Need For An International Criminal Court In The New International World Order, Christopher L. Blakesley
Scholarly Works
Any inquiry into the merits of an international criminal court must start with resolving three basic issues:
1. Can the tribunal improve international cooperation in law enforcement, add to the capabilities of the various nations in matters of international criminal law, or contribute in any incremental way to the solution of international and transnational criminal law problems by improving the current practice and enhancing the effectiveness of all concerned?
2. Will the recommended system have a better or equal chance of operating as effectively as the best existing systems of national criminal justice?
3. Will the recommended system improve efficiency …

The International Rule Of Law, William W. Bishop
The International Rule Of Law, William W. Bishop
Michigan Law Review
In contrast with the previous lectures in this series on the Rule of Law, we are today not concerned with how the Rule of Law operates in a highly organized modem state like our own United States; but are turning instead to the world-wide community (or perhaps more properly international arena or international sphere of action, since the very word "community" may over-emphasize the degree of common sentiment!), in which the present role of the law is far less than within the state. Our first question is whether there is in fact any such thing as an international Rule of …
