Human Rights: Contemporary Issues and Perspectives

The legal discipline of international criminal justice has followed a trajectory that has failed to facilitate a genuine and comprehensive exploration of current realities. These issues are often obscured and serve as major causes of the violations of the fundamental principles of international human rights law and international criminal justice. The prevailing narrative suggests that human rights and criminal justice are akin to a barrel in the possession of oppressive governments that masquerade as advocates of humanitarian norms while showing little regard for the traditional legal and moral rights of victims. This barrel is used to perpetuate deceptive regulations, falsehoods, convoluted metaphors, and empty promises in international criminal courts. A wide array of prominent theories addresses the system of international criminal law without uncovering the underlying truths, while the concept of international criminal responsibility for rogue governments is frequently stripped of its intended meaning. The goal of this book is to provide a thorough examination of the animosity exhibited by Western governments and highlight the dangers of their inextricable judgmental outbursts and dishonest military protection of major criminals from official arrest warrants issued by the ICC. This book will offer support to the rights of victims through promoting the moral truth and imperative legal reasoning.
