Summary: An international lawyer based in Washington, DC, Smith argues that the best potential for making the hopes of Nuremberg and the aspirations of hopes of international justice a reality comes from a true acceptance of wrong-doing and a consequent desire to move on by people most involved, and working toward these solutions in their homes rather than continued vilification and ostracism from on high. He draws on his experiences with US and international agencies regarding such sites of genocide as the Balkans, Rwanda, Sierra Lione. Annotation ©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com) |
