Summary:
"This volume reflects on the interaction between international human rights law and international criminal law. Both fields advance the same norms of respect for human life and dignity and yet, as our editors and contributors note, are embodied in different treaties and enforcement regimes. The editors, Professor Borhan Uddin Khan and Dr. Md Jahid Hossain Bhuiyan, look at the overlap between these two fields, surface the issues arising in actual situations, and foster the hope that there is more synergy than tension between these two fields"--Provided by publisher.
