“This book will be a must-read... Jones has written a much-needed conceptual overview and call to action which will wake people up to the worst of which humanity is capable.”
Charli Carpenter, Assistant Professor, Department of Political Science, University of Massachusetts Amherst
How we can stop the world's worst atrocities.
In this compelling overview, Adam Jones outlines the history and current extent of key crimes against humanity, and highlights the efforts of popular movements to suppress them.
Using examples ranging from the genocides in Darfur and Rwanda to the sex trade of Eastern Europe and the use of torture in the war on terror, Jones explores the progress made in toughening international law, and the stumbling blocks which prevent full compliance with it.
Coherent and revealing, this audiobook is essential for anyone interested in the wellbeing of humanity and its future.
“A remarkable book that is immediately accessible for the novice in the field, or students, and yet also engages with its topic in intellectually interesting ways for the more seasoned reader. Helps chart the way forward for those already thinking about, or tussling with, the horrors of humanity and the seemingly ever evolving capacity to shock the conscience.”
James Gow, Professor of International Peace and Security, King's College London
