Reviews
'It is only on rare occasions that one comes across work in international criminal law combing social and political theory, legal analysis and specific case studies, all in the service of a general argument about law's relation to violence. Bikundo offers unorthodox and refreshing perspectives on foundational issues and practical problems in international criminal law.' Wouter Werner, VU University Amsterdam, The Netherlands 'This book provides an important theoretical, highly readable and nuanced study of the legality of international criminal law and its multiple relations with the violence of law. With considerable acumen, Bikundo reconstructs the possibility of critique and our understanding of the contemporary gestures of international justice.' Peter D. Rush, University of Melbourne, Australia 'As denotes the material, Bikundo has an authorial presence at once secular and self-sacrificial, exemplary and human. The practical goal, and the sacrament in a world of immanent legality embraced as gift, is the matter of binding humanity's violence through law. An intriguing, perplexing and wonderful book.' Eugene McNamee, University of Ulster, UK
