"This book analyzes the relationship between international law, including the U.N. Charter, and present-day American foreign policy. From the competing perspectives of unilateralism and multilateralism, the book deconstructs terrorism, concerns for national security, American courts best suited for the trial of detainees and unlawful combatants, and fears that some governmental responses have crossed constitutional boundaries. It contains an advanced assessment of all new international criminal tribunals as they deal with genocide, crimes against humanity, the laws or customs of war, and aggression."--BOOK JACKET.
