In an area of law so thoroughly politicized, culturally freighted and passionately punitive, there is need for an extraordinary measure of protection for the accused if we are to pay more than lip service to justice. Defenses in Contemporary International Criminal Law ventures farther into this uneasy territory than any previous work, offering a meticulous analysis of the case law in the post World War II Military Tribunals and the ad hoc tribunals for Rwanda and the Former Yugoslavia, with particular attention to the defenses developed, their rationales, and their origins in various municipal systems. It analyzes the defense provisions in the charters and statutes underlying these tribunals and the new International Criminal Court. Dr. Knoops' conceptual reach not only includes the defenses recognized in the field's jurisprudence and scholarship (superior orders, duress, self-defense, insanity, necessity, immunity of States) but also presents a strong case for the incorporation of genetic and neurobiological data into the working assets of the international criminal defense attorney.

Du début à la fin du XHIe siécle, l'appréciation des témoignages et preuves par les tribunaux ecclésiastiques catholiques a considérablement évolué. Le système de procédure criminelle qui se fait jour durant cette période comporte de nombreux éléments qui seront plus tard inscrits dans nos lois. Nous en isolerons deux: d'abord le principe selon lequel les juges ne peuvent condamner que s'il y a crime ou délit avéré, ce qui annonce notre actuelle présomption d'innocence; deuxièmement le corps de preuves à constituer pour conclure à culpabilite. Il y eût en ce domaine aussi une évolution importante. Cet article en examine les aspects les plus importants et en esquisse la logique.
