  • - The Trial of Slobodan Milosevic and the Corruption of International Justice
    av John Laughland
    500 - 1 186,-

    -- A passionate critique of Milosevic's trial and the PR machine at the heart of international justice -- 'Study this story. ... The truth is hard to find, but in John Laughland we are fortunate to have a man blessed with the freedom to seek all facts, and the desire to find the truth.' Ramsey Clark, from the ForewordSlobodan Milosevic died in prison in 2006 during a four-year marathon trial at The Hague for war crimes. John Laughland was one of the last Western journalists to meet him. He followed the trial from the beginning and wrote extensively on it, challenging the legitimacy of the Yugoslav Tribunal and the hypocrisy of 'international justice' in the Guardian and The Spectator.In this short and readable book Laughland gives a full account of the trial -- the longest criminal trial in history -- from the moment the indictment was issued at the height of NATO's attack on Yugoslavia to the day of Milosevic's mysterious death in custody. 'International justice' is supposed to hold war criminals to account but, as the trials of both Milosevic and Saddam Hussein show, the indictments are politically motivated and the judicial procedures are irredeemably corrupt. Laughland argues that international justice is an impossible dream and that such show trials are little more than a propaganda exercise designed to distract attention from the war crimes committed by Western states.

    av John Laughland
    756 - 1 923,-

    In tracing Friedrich von Schelling's long philosophical development, this title examines his disentanglement from German idealism and his reaction, later in life, against Hegel. It argues that this story has relevance beyond the facts themselves and that it explains much about the direction philosophy took in the first century of modern period.
