A History of Political Trials: From Charles I to Charles Taylor - Paperback
by John Laughland (Author)
The modern use of international tribunals to try heads of state for genocide and crimes against humanity is often considered a positive development. In A History of Political Trials, John Laughland shows that trials of heads of state are in fact not new, and that previous trials throughout history have themselves violated the law and due process.
