Editorial Reviews:
Product Description International justice will lose all credibility if powerful states continue to benefit from total impunity. The case of the United States is emblematic: political aggression, inhuman treatment, illegal detention are all ?international crimes? for which the guilty must be pursued, according to the United Nations Charter and the Geneva Conventions.

Customer Reviews:
Has the United States been ignoring international law? July 11, 2008 Has the United States been ignoring international law? "International Justice and Impunity: The Case of the United States" claims so. Recent American acts in the middle east are skirting the Geneva Conventions and even inducing the torture of prisoners - a black mark on the country that used to be the champion of the United Nations. A scholarly work with contributions from people in various levels of the government and from around the world, "International Justice and Impunity: The Case of the United States" is highly recommended for community library International Studies and Political Science collections.
