About the Book

A groundbreaking investigation in which Erna Paris explores the policies behind America's opposition too the creation of a permanent international criminal court and the implications for the world at large. The ICC is the first permanent tribunal of its kind. The mandate of the ICC is to challenge criminal impunity on the part of national leaders and to promote accountability in world affairs at the highest level. On 11 March 2003, when the new court was inaugurated, one country was consicuously absent - the US.

ERNA PARIS is the winner of ten national and international writing awards, including the Canada-US White Award for journalism, a gold medal from the National Magazine Awards Foundation, and four Media Club of Canada awards for feature writing and radio documentary. She is the author of six acclaimed books of literary nonfiction.

Review :
“Beautifully written and utterly compelling.”  -The Globe and Mail (Toronto) “Erna Paris takes us on a compelling journey into the dramatic events behind the creation of the International Criminal Court. The court symbolizes the growing global determination to end impunity for the perpetrators of atrocities. Yet this vision of universal justice has been anathema to those in Washington who disdain any international oversight of their exceptional power. As Paris vividly demonstrates, this contempt underscores the Bush administration's decision to combat terrorism by flouting the most basic legal constraints.” -Kenneth Roth, executive director, Human Rights Watch “Paris masters an enormous amount of historical detail with intelligent arguments and captivating prose. . . . A sound introduction to a complex topic.” -Montreal Gazette
