Description

The Archival Politics of International Courts by Henry Alexander Redwood The archives of international courts have received little attention, yet they hold a significant record of past violence and shape the international community. This book offers a new perspective on archives, integrating insights from international relations, archival science, and post-colonial anthropology to explore their role in community formation. The book focuses on the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda's archive, examining how knowledge is produced in international courts and the type of international community imagined within these archives. By analyzing the materiality of archives, Redwood sheds light on how knowledge is produced and contested in the international domain. Through this critical reading, Redwood establishes the importance of archives in understanding the complexities of international justice and the construction of the international community.
