Join Professor Kirsten Campbell and distinguished guests for the launch of The Justice of Humans: Subject, Society and Sexual Violence in International Criminal Justice

Join the Unit for Global Justice and the Centre for the Study of the Balkans for the launch and panel discussion of Professor Kirsten Campbell’s book, The Justice of Humans: Subject, Society and Sexual Violence in International Criminal Justice (Cambridge University Press, 2022).

About the Book

Justice for conflict-related sexual violence remains a critical problem for global society today. The Justice of Humans addresses pressing questions for 'international justice': what do existing approaches to international justice offer to victims of war and societies in conflict? And what possibilities do they provide for feminist social transformation? The Justice of Humans develops a new feminist approach to 'international justice'. Adopting a socio-legal perspective, it studies two major contemporary examples of legal and feminist approaches to justice, the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia and the Women's Court (former Yugoslavia), focusing on their treatment of sexual violence as a gender-based crime. Drawing on feminist social theory, legal analysis, and empirical research, the book offers an innovative feminist framework for understanding 'international justice' and offers new theoretical and practical strategies for building feminist justice.
