Abstract

On I July 2002, the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court (hereinafter ICC) entered into force and a significant portion of the world's population now enjoys international jurisdictional protection against the perpetrators (and the potential perpetrators) of acts of genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes. The volume of Giuseppe Nesi and Mauro Politi could not come at a better time, a time in which the international community is finally posing a permanent challenge to the phenomenon of impunity for the most serious crimes. As a participant in the Conference held in Trento on 13-15 May 1999, the proceedings of which make this book, this reviewer had a very easy task in reading the volume, insofar as the memory of the lively discussions heard at the Conference had been immediately depicted page after page, essay after essay, thus bringing a pleasant impression of diji-vu. Indeed, the excellent work of the Conference's organisers facilitated their work as editors, because of the quality of the materials presented by the various speakers at the Conference.
