International Criminal Law and Russia: From ‘Nuremberg’ Passion to ‘The Hague’ Prejudice

Gennady Esakov

Europe-Asia Studies, 2017, vol. 69, issue 8, 1184-1200

Abstract: This essay outlines the history of international criminal law scholarship in Russia. I use a politically based explanation of the changing positive and negative attitudes regarding international criminal law, and show that the discourse on these issues in contemporary Russia is subject to serious political pressure. Changing such a situation is a difficult but essential task, mainly because of the over-riding need to free current scholarship from political control.
