For anyone interested in participating, I am convening a conference for April 19-21, 2012 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. This will be the first substantive conference that will assess the contributions, and limitations, of the Special Court for Sierra Leone to Africa and International Criminal Justice. The conference announcement and details, including the panels and topics, are available online here: www.law.pitt.edu/scsl. If you have any questions, send me an e-mail at jallohc@gmail.com.
In various African Union decisions and resolutions adopted since July 2008, a distinct African perspective has emerged to pose the first real State-driven challenge to the legality and legitimacy of International Criminal Law. This blog seeks to uncover the African perspective on international criminal justice. It aims to contribute to and to foster debate on how best to challenge impunity in Africa in a harsh State-eat-State international law world, including by posting relevant documents.
