| dc.description.abstract | Because atrocity crimes are sui generis, nothing other than the pursuit of retribution can justify their international prosecution. Other commonly given general justifying aims for punishment all fail -- to incapacitation, to denunciation, from rehabilitation, to deterrence, leaving retribution as the only plausible candidate. This failure presents a dilemma for the many who hold strong intuitions that war criminals should be punished but have a distaste for retribution. Either give up international tribunals as currently constituted as mechanisms for providing justice after atrocities or embrace their retributive character. [From introductory section] | en_US |
