Newly revised and updated, Prosecuting The Powerful presents a compelling account of a revolutionary moment in history. With praise from notable figures, it captivates readers from the first page.
Could we ever see Vladimir Putin in the dock for his crimes? What about a Western ally like Benjamin Netanyahu? This book explores the once-unimaginable idea of putting a country’s leader on trial. Steve Crawshaw skillfully blends powerful eyewitness reporting with gripping history, showcasing how the possibilities of justice have transformed.
Crawshaw shares recent stories from the front lines of justice in Ukraine, Israel/Palestine, and at The Hague, as well as his earlier encounters with war criminals like Slobodan Milošević. He highlights the voices of those advocating for civilian protection and accountability for war criminals, tracing a path from the Geneva Conventions to the Syrian police photographer who aided in capturing one of Bashar al-Assad's torturers.
Moreover, the book follows the remarkable unfolding story of two of the world’s most powerful and well-connected leaders currently under indictment at the International Criminal Court in The Hague: Putin and Netanyahu. In a time of darkness, this narrative sheds light on a historic opportunity. The scales of justice can and must be balanced. Now is the moment.
