By: Chris Stephen   | Series: The FUTURES Series 
From Russia to The Democratic Republic of Congo to Myanmar, Chris Stephen ponders the future of prosecuting war criminals who think themselves untouchable in this timely new book, part of Melville House FUTURES series.

We are all too familiar with the horrors of war. Throughout history, rules have been laid down to govern the conduct of war, with varying success. Today, the International Criminal Court (ICC) in the Netherlands is the world's first permanent war crimes court, but since it opened in 2002, it has jailed just 4 people. So what has gone wrong?

Journalist and ex war-correspondent Chris Stephen takes a look at the colorful history of how war law was devised, asking complicated and important questions such as:

  • What constitutes a war crime?
  • How and when can the law step into prosecute?

Today, membership of the ICC is voluntary. Of the UN’s 193 member states, 123 are in the ICC. But most of the world’s war crimes are committed by the other 70. Simply put, governments that commit war crimes don’t join the ICC – like Russia, for example.

How then, do we go after war criminals? Follow the money, argues Stephen, and go after the banks and corporations that enable warlords. It worked for Al Capone, who, famously, was jailed not for his many killings, but for not paying his taxes. It was the same for Milosevic: years were spent gathering records, so judges could be shown he pulled the financial strings.

Corporations and banks, span the world. Democracies and dictators both rely on them. The future of war crime courts demand they hit all the enablers, whether they wear battle fatigues or three-piece suits.

What an amazing adapter/outlet!
Style: Type C/G/A-Most Countries-3FT
This adapter/outlet is the best I've used for my travels (Internationally). It stands out in a crowded market with its versatility and convenience. It supports plugs from many countries, including the US, UK, EU, Asia and Africa, making it an ideal companion for travelers. Please note: that this outlet does not convert voltage (iPhones/Tablets/Gadgets with USB connections are OK). Design and Build Quality: The adapter is compact and well-built, featuring a sturdy design that can withstand the rigors of travel. It fits in the of your hand (adults) and takes no luggage space at all. The 3ft cable from the outlet is helpful so that the outlet sits away from the wall allowing plenty of room on a table/stand, for multi-devices to be charged without congestion. Functionality: One of the standout features of this adapter is its multiple USB ports. It includes 2 USB-A and 2 USB-C port, allowing you to charge multiple devices simultaneously and quickly. This is particularly useful for charging smartphones, tablets, and other gadgets without needing multiple adapters. Comes with 2 additional outlet attachments to be used either in UK/US/Africa/Asia Performance: The adapter performs exceptionally well, providing a stable and reliable connection. The USB ports offer fast charging, which is a significant advantage when you’re on the go. Pros: Supports plugs from many countries Multiple USB ports (2 USB-A and 2 USB-C) Compact and durable design Fast charging capabilities Cons: None so far Conclusion: Very happy with this International outlet that can also be used for daily usage.

Perfect accessory for travelers to Europe
Style: Type C/G/A-Most Countries-3FT
I travel to Europe yearly, so it made sense to purchase a power strip with a type C plug rather than traveling with multiple adapters. Even with a 3-foot cord, it's the perfect travel-friendly extension cord. I love that there are three standard USA outlets, as well as two each USB-C and USB-A ports. Even better, it's lightweight and doesn't take up much room in my luggage. It's very reasonably priced, has great functionality, and I highly recommend it for fellow travelers.

Best plug if you are traveling to France or Europe
Style: Type C/G/A-Most Countries-3FT
If you ever need a European plug, this is the one to get. I took it with me to France for a whole month and it was a life saver. I was able to plug all my electronics and also have no issues with the conversion of watts. Now that I have it I take it with me anytime I travel to Europe.
