International criminal law and justice is a dynamic and rapidly evolving field that has resulted in the establishment of new international criminal tribunals and innovative mechanisms for investigating and holding criminals accountable. These advancements have led to a significant increase in the volume and consolidation of case law, as well as heightened scholarly attention. In response to these developments, the second edition of Kai Ambos' seminal treatise has undergone a thorough revision and rewriting, particularly in the Special Part of international criminal law, which focuses on specific crimes and sentencing.

This revised edition includes extensive updates on various topics, including:

Sexual and gender-based crimes: The discussion on these crimes has been expanded to encompass a broader range of offenses and provide more comprehensive protections for victims.

Environmental crimes: International criminal law has recognized the importance of protecting the environment and has introduced provisions to address environmental degradation and pollution.

War crimes and asymmetrical conflicts: The book delves into the nexus requirement in war crimes and asymmetrical conflicts, such as those involving ISIS. It also addresses the newly introduced war crimes of the International Criminal Court (ICC) Statute and the peculiarities of cyber-attacks and other emerging activities.

The treatise complements Volume I of the treatise on issues relevant to the foundations, general part of international criminal law, and general principles of international criminal justice. Together with the other new editions of the three-volume series, this second edition offers an exhaustive guide to every aspect of international criminal law, from fundamental principles to procedures and implementation.

Kai Ambos' Treatise remains an indispensable reference work for academics and practitioners of international criminal law, providing a comprehensive and up-to-date understanding of this complex field.
