Feminist Judgments: Reimagining the International Criminal Court
★★★★★
★★★★★
English
In the past decade, feminist scholars and women's rights activists have used the feminist judgment method to reimagine the relationship between law and gender justice, resulting in rewritten 'feminist' judgments from courts around the world. This groundbreaking book extends this approach and applies it to a wide range of decisions of the International Criminal Court (ICC), the Hague-based court with power to prosecute war crimes, crimes against humanity, genocide and aggression in over 120 countries. With over 60 contributors from the Global North and Global South, including countries where the ICC has been active, this book reflects an international and intersectional feminism. Diverse contributions reveal the gendered implications of crimes (both sexual and non-sexual), command responsibility, defences, complementarity, head of state immunity, sentencing, reparations and more. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.
