Sub section of the website of the Global Policy Forum (GPF), focusing on the development of international law. The GPF is a non-governmental body founded in 1993 to monitor the global policy making of the United Nations. This section of its website collects together articles, analysis and news stories related to international justice, including introductory descriptions of key issues and institutions, under headings such as the International Court of Justice, the International Criminal Court, and the Alien Tort Claims Act (of the United States). Information on War Crimes Tribunals is subdivided by country, including Yugoslavia, Rwanda, Sierra Leone and Cambodia, and a "Rogues' Gallery" presents profiles of leaders who are accused of serious violations of international criminal law. There is also a selection of articles and links headed "globalization of law", which addresses trans-national crime issues such as terrorism, smuggling and cyber-crime. The site is freely accessible and the articles are published in HTML, typically from sources such as the New York Times, the BBC, the Guardian and Le Monde Diplomatique.
