Review of the book by Julie Fraser, Brianne McGonnigle Leyh (eds.), Intersections of Law and Culture at the International Criminal Court, Edward Elgar Publishing, Cheltenham: 2020 (original) (raw)
If we wanted home truths, we should have stayed at home. Clifford Geertz This famous quote from one of the most important contemporary anthropologists gives us a good chance to welcome research endeavours which constitute an invitation to understand what the truths are "outside" our homes - including our own home's legal landscapes. The volume edited by Julie Fraser and Brianne McGonnigle Leyh, both from the Netherlands institute of Human rights (Utrecht University), responds to this call and constitutes a long-awaited invitation to visit the intersection of law and culture - in the specific arena of the international Criminal Court .
