{"product_id":"eyeless-in-gaza-1","title":"World of War Crimes","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery day, we are exposed\nto evidence of hundreds of war crimes: residential buildings bombed and burning\nin Ukraine, merciless shootings in Gaza despite a so-called ceasefire,\ncivilians beaten and starved by armies in Sudan and a mounting number of aid workers\nand journalists murdered by soldiers. The evidence proves guilt beyond\nreasonable doubt, but we know there will be few, if any, prosecutions. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this powerful book,\ndistinguished human rights lawyer Geoffrey Robertson exposes the 'fraud' that\nis international humanitarian law. Drawing on his experience as a UN war crimes\njudge, he considers some of the most pressing legal issues of our time, including\ntorture, nuclear weapons, drone warfare and the fallacy of 'anticipatory\nself-defence'. In the face of such threats, and with an impotent Security\nCouncil neutered by the world's most powerful aggressors, modern democracies\nare increasingly vulnerable to conflict and invasion. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost importantly in an\nage of amoral warlords like Vladimir Putin, Benjamin Netanyahu and Donald\nTrump, the book warns that we are losing sight of Nuremberg's legacy: that\nthere can be no peace without justice. This authoritative and deeply humane\nwork is both a rallying defence of moral law and a resounding condemnation of\nthose who defy it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Biteback Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55476871823704,"sku":"9781785909771","price":25.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781785909771_e9bb0981-4aba-480d-aa55-953ad6e025b8.jpg?v=1777985143","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/eyeless-in-gaza-1","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
