Research Guide on the Darfur Crisis

The New York University law school has added a new research guide to its GlobaLex collection.

It is entitled The Crisis in Darfur: Researching the Legal Issues and was written by Amy Burchfield of the Cleveland-Marshall College of Law Library:

"[...]the International Criminal Court’s investigation of the situation in Darfur, and subsequent arrest warrant for Sudanese President Oman Hassan Ahmad al-Bashir, is a clear indication that the international community is responding to the crisis in Darfur."

"The aim of this brief essay is to direct researchers to key online and print resources discussing the legal aspects of the Darfur crisis. Each section of this essay summarizes key issues and links to the important documents, reports, treaties, and resolutions impacting these issues. The 'examples of scholarship' subsections point researchers toward recent analysis and criticism. It is not the intent of this essay to produce a comprehensive bibliography."
