Blood Power and Bedlam examines the etiology of violations of international criminal law in
four post-colonial African states. With a particular focus on genocide and crimes against
humanity an integrated theory is produced and historical political economic and structural
aspects are explored. The book's main intent is an analysis of the worst crimes humans commit
and how in the cases examined they arise out of a post-colonial environment. Attention is
given to existing or potential applications of international social control.
