Product Detail

Name:	After Genocide: Bringing the Devil to Justice
Product Code:	9781591026846
Description:	By Adam Smith
Product Detail:	Imagine a criminal justice system that achieves fewer than five convictions per year and spends more than $20 million on each one. By some measures, this would make it the least efficient prosecutorial system in recorded history. Picture the same system consistently running the risk of creating rather than deterring crimes, while holding the distinction that few victims or perpetrators believe it provides fairness, equity, or justice. For many in Rwanda, the former-Yugoslavia, Sierra Leone, and elsewhere this is the reality of the justice that the international community has provided for them. How did one of the bravest and most optimistic expressions of post-Cold War global power -- the provision of justice to those victimized by atrocious crimes -- slip into a system in which so many doubt justice is being done, a system that may well exacerbate the problems it was designed to fix?
