The limits to the rule of law in the modern age of crimes against humanity and genocide are clear.
Its laws and procedures are simply no longer satisfactory for the new problems it has to face. It can no longer try all offenders. They are vastly too many. If it decides to let all or most go free, because it cannot try them all, then it denies justice.
This important book deals with the complex questions about law and forgiveness in this age of genocide -- from Australian Aborigines, the Holocaust, Rwanda, Kosovo and Kurdistan.
