‘This is an eminently interdisciplinary tome on crimes against humanity, which draws appropriately not just from the usual international law sources but also from a range of other disciplines – especially philosophy and political science. Canefe is to be commended for the refreshing way in which she has systematically applied a Global South perspective (as a way of seeing) to the analysis of such crimes as they relate to Global South (as a geo-political space); an analytical approach that remains uncommon in the field.’
-Professor Obiora Okafor, York University, Toronto ON
‘Crimes against Humanity is a tour de force in studies in international law from a scholar who has substantial knowledge and brilliant insights into complex material. It should be required reading for students and practitioners in the field of international relations and law.’
-Professor Kenneth Christie, Royal Roads University, Victoria BC
