Re-Thinking International Criminal Justice in Africa

In this blog, I share my thoughts, as well as open a discussion forum for those interested in reflecting on developments in international criminal justice in Africa.What are the issues? The controversies? Developments, not just at the International and Regional level (ICC, the Tribunals, African Union), but also at the national level (TRCs, Courts, Amnesties).
