Zusammenfassung:Philipp Ambach focuses on the victims of crimes under international law and develops an approach of victim-related restorative justice. Ambach explains that victims’ participation in international criminal law proceedings lead to an enhanced ownership that moves away from punitive aspects. As a consequence, outreach is of major importance and selectivity is problematic. In sum, Ambach argues that international criminal justice and international criminal law proceedings have moved beyond mere punishment - or, to put it differently, that from the victims’ perspective (retributive) punishment is not enough.
