By Luis Moreno Ocampo

This is the inside story of the International Criminal Court, one of the most innovative international institutions, from the unique perspective of its first Chief Prosecutor. Arguing that there is no chaos, just complexity, Moreno Ocampo produces an interdisciplinary analysis of his decisions, describing a “fragmented” international legal system’s operation and the relationships between legal and political decisions. This book aims to help new generations to manage violence with new ways of legal and political thinking.
