Deontological retributivism and the legal practice of international jurisprudence: the case of the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda
FINK, JASON BENJAMIN
Journal of African Law
Volume 49, Number 2, October 2005 p.101-131

LAW JOURNAL / LAW REVIEW

Contemporary international criminal jurisprudence has fashioned a legal paradigm encoding the crime of genocide as a violation of moral law. Structured by an ethos of deontological retributivism, it has posited a set of institutional and conceptual mechanisms designed to situate and stabilize the meaning of genocide. The articulation of this paradigm has entailed the bracketing or suspending of alternative discursive strategies and institutions, particularly those inscribed with a traditional; contextual value. Configuring the social fact of genocide under a normative framework of retribution often fails to address the realities and needs of the local populations who have suffered through severe social trauma. In the intensely unstable space of post-genocidal societies, such as Rwanda, the mandating of formal legal structures by international judicial authorities may constitute a genuine barrier to the critical appropriation of the fact of genocide into the communal memory by imposing a set of privileged frameworks without recognizing the formal integrity and constructive potential of local strategies.

LAW JOURNAL / LAW REVIEW

A recent article in this Journal dealt with the question of whether members of armed forces who are charged with criminal conduct are able to plead as a defence that they were acting under the orders of a superior. The purpose of this article is to describe certain significant recent developments in international law relating to this question. It considers the present status of the defence of superior orders in relation to crimes under international law in the statutes of various international criminal courts and tribunals, including the International Criminal Court , the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia , the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda, and the Special Court for Sierra Leone, as well as in national legislation enacted in a number of jurisdictions to implement the Statute of the International Criminal Court
