Richard Ashby Wilson conducted empirical research with judges, prosecutors, defense attorneys, and expert witnesses in three international criminal tribunals to understand how law and history are combined in the courtroom. Historical testimony is now an integral part of international trials, with prosecutors and defense teams using background testimony to pursue decidedly legal objectives. Both use historical narratives to frame the alleged crimes and to articulate their side's theory of the case. In the Slobodan Milošević trial, the prosecution sought to demonstrate special intent to commit genocide by reference to a long-standing animus, nurtured within a nationalist mind-set. For their part, the defense calls historical witnesses to undermine charges of superior responsibility, and to mitigate the sentence by representing crimes as reprisals. Although legal ways of knowing are distinctive from those of history, the two are effectively combined in international trials in a way that challenges us to rethink the relationship between law and history"--$$cProvided by publisher. 000439046 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000439046 650_0 $$aCrimes against humanity. 000439046 650_0 $$aWar crimes. 000439046 650_0 $$aProsecution. 000439046 650_0 $$aEvidence, Documentary. 000439046 650_0 $$aPolitical violence$$xHistory. 000439046 650_0 $$aCivil war$$xHistory. 000439046 650_0 $$aWar$$xHistory. 000439046 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aWilson, Richard, 1964-$$tWriting history in international criminal trials.$$dCambridge ; New York : Cambridge University Press, 2011$$z9780521198851$$z9780521138314$$w(DLC)2010044856$$w(OCoLC)672300105 000439046 8520_ $$bacq 000439046 85280 $$bebk$$hProQuest Ebook Central 000439046 85280 $$bebk$$hProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete 000439046 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=691899$$zOnline Access 000439046 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=691899$$zOnline Access 000439046 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:439046$$pGLOBAL_SET 000439046 980__ $$aEBOOK$$aEBOOK 000439046 980__ $$aBIB 000439046 982__ $$aEbook 000439046 983__ $$aOnline
