A must reference for the practitioner, judge, student, and serious scholar, this revised and updated work provides a thorough and readable text on various types and possibilities of incorporation of international law into our domestic legal processes. The second edition has retained and updated the first six chapters from the first edition and contains the most detailed exposition to date of cases, patterns of use, and trends concerning traditional topics such as customary international law and its incorporation into U.S. law; self-executing treaties and direct and indirect legal effects of treaties; the last-in-time rule and exceptions thereto; priorities among generally coequal laws of the land; presidential powers and duties; remedies or civil and criminal sanctions; and use of human right precepts throughout U.S. history (including attention to actual types of human rights utilized, the right of access to courts, and the right to an effective remedy). Chapters on human rights and the ninth amendment; jurisdiction and enforcement responsibilities with respect to international criminal law; and the peace power have also been retained and updated, while portions of other chapters have been shifted to other sections of the treatise or deleted. The comprehensive and highly useful index has been retained. The treatise is unique in terms of areas of coverage and its attention to detail, including heavily documented research into literally thousands of U.S. cases.

In this revised edition, Professor Bassiouni persuasively establishes the legal validity of the Nuremberg Charter and describes the evolution of "crimes against humanity" from 1945 to the 1998 ICC Statute. The book's comprehensive historical and legal analysis starts with the origins of that crime in the international regulation of armed conflicts and covers the Nuremberg, Tokyo and Allied Prosecutions after World War II, subsequent national prosecutions, as well as the Statutes of the ICTY, ICTR and their jurisprudence, and the Statute of the ICC.
