Details

This volume elucidates and explores the interrelationships and direct causal connection between serious international crimes, serious breaches to fundamental human rights and gross affronts to human dignity, that lead to mass forced migration.

Forced migration most often occurs in the context of protracted armed conflict of a non-international nature where terrorism, fierce fighting, deep animosity, tit-for-tat retaliation, and “rapid dominance” doctrine all lead to the commission of atrocity crimes. Accordingly, this volume makes a valuable contribution to the literature and to the cause of trying to resolve mass forced displacement at its root cause to explore the course that it takes and how it might be prevented. The collection comprises original research by leading legal scholars and jurists focusing on the three central themes of serious international crimes, human rights, and forced migration. The work also includes a Foreword from Justice Sir Howard Morrison, Appeals Division of the International Criminal Court.

The book will be a valuable resource for students, academics, researchers and policy-makers working in the areas of International Law, Migration, Human Rights and International Criminal Law.

Foreword

Justice Sir Howard Andrew Clive Morrison, KCMG, CBE, QC, Appeal Division, International Criminal Court, The Hague
