This book addresses age-based persecution
of children as a crime against humanity in connection with genocide, crimes
against humanity and war crimes (persecution - with some variation in the
elements of the crime - is an existing offence under the Rome Statute of the
permanent International Criminal Court, the statutes of various international
criminal tribunals i.e. International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda, the
International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia and under the
statutes of other international criminal courts (i.e. the Special Court
of Sierra Leone)). The book introduces a completely original concept in
international criminal law, however, in discussing age-based persecution of
children as an international crime against humanity where (i) the particular
discrete child collective is targeted ‘as such’ for international atrocity
crimes or (ii) individual children are targeted based on their age-based group
identity as it intersects with other perpetrator – targeted characteristics
such as gender, ethnicity, religion etc.
