This book illuminates the way in which measures of intercession, inspired by the ideals of Responsibility to Protect (R2P), have provided a solution to the dilemma of articulating when and how the international community may respond to atrocity crimes occurring in other States.

Rezensionen
'Atrocity Crimes and International Law is an excellent work which is of relevance to international law, international relations, humanitarian law, and peace and security studies, offering a logical and clear argument, and supported by appropriate and persuasive case studies. The book offers insights into the emerging behaviours of States in a vital area. Henderson examines State practice in response to atrocity crimes through the prism of intercession, revealing the power of ideas to prompt change in international law and inform the advancement of the R2P framework in a meaningful way, while also powerfully countering those who continue to challenge the existence of the concept.'
