Meernik’s new book is an excellent examination of the work of international tribunals. Written in an accessible way, it provides a thorough and balanced assessment of their impact on a range of outcomes, from justice to peace to human security. It is an ideal text for undergraduate students.

International Tribunals and Human Security is essential reading for anyone concerned about the impact of international criminal law. One of the foremost social scientists working on international courts, James Meernik gives a crystal-clear and evidence-based evaluation of tribunals’ effects on human rights protections, civil war, and public perceptions of justice. At times sobering and other times surprising, this book will challenge court proponents and critics alike to reconsider their expectations.
