State Immunity, War Crimes and Human Rights<\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\">Until recently the law of state immunity might have seemed settled and uncontroversial. That is not so. There is a struggle between those who would reduce immunity still further &#8211; especially of senior officials such as General Pinochet &#8211; and those who would maintain immunity even for outrageous foreign governmental acts. In the age of the International Criminal Court, is Pinochet pass\u00e9? Professor Crawford will review these developments and suggest a new synthesis. Professor James Crawford James Crawford has been Whewell Professor of International Law at the University of Cambridge since 1992, and a Research Professor at LaTrobe University since 2011. He has served as a member of the International Law Commission and was Special Rapporteur for State Responsibility from 1998-2001. He was also the Australian Law Reform Commissioner in charge of the reference leading to the Foreign States Immunities Act 1984 (Cth).
