Geoffrey Robertson's recent theatre show recounted some key moments from his career which touched on the human rights aspects of big topics such as the death penalty and the pursuit and trial of Julian Assange. An inspirational talk from a truly good-hearted humanist who sees right through the justifications and rationalisations for human rights abuses that the power-hungry cling to. And all done with wit and wisdom.
Robertson's latest book outlines an emerging Plan B for punishing human rights abusers- 'Magnitsky Laws', which could impose debilitating sanctions on 'bad people'. The book explains the background and potential of these laws - early versions of them have been introduced in the US, Canada and Britain, and they are now being considered in Australia.
