7 Acknowledgements As might be expected for a piece of work which was five years in the making, its completion would not have been possible but for the generosity of a great many persons, the most significant of which I would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge. First, I would like to thank all of those who so generously provided the funding for this research, without which this project would not have been possible. In particular, I would like to thank the Rhodes Trust for funding tuition at the University of Oxford and providing such an enriching community during my studies. In particular, I am extremely grateful to Warden Don Markwell for the outstanding support he provided throughout this project. Special thanks also to Don Ferencz and the Planethood Foundation for their generous funding of the Global Justice Research Fellowship at St. Anne s College. I also wish to acknowledge Lincoln College and the Faculty of Law for their assistance in funding my fieldwork. I am especially thankful to all of those involved in establishing the Tim Hawkins Memorial Scholarship and thereby affording me the opportunity to enter the world of international criminal law. I also owe a great deal of thanks to the many people who provided such helpful guidance, advice, supervision and feedback. In particular, I wish to acknowledge the contribution of Dr. Phil Clark, who was involved in this project from the very beginning and was heavily influential in transforming a thread of an idea into this completed manuscript. I am tremendously grateful to Phil for his outstanding academic input, practical advice and good humour throughout this project. I also owe a great deal of thanks to Dr. Fernanda Pirie for so adeptly guiding me through to the completion of this work. Special thanks also to those who provided such insightful and helpful feedback on my work at various stages, including Professor David Anderson, Professor Dapo Akande, Professor Daniel Branch and Dr. Gabrielle Lynch. I also wish to acknowledge the contributions of the Oxford Transitional vii

8 viii Acknowledgements Justice Research network, the Centre for Criminology, the Centre for Socio-Legal Studies and the British Institute in East Africa. Thank you also to all of those in Kenya, The Hague and elsewhere who so generously gave up their time in answering my questions and assisting with my research. Special thanks to Francis Okomo-Okello for the active role he played in this regard. Most of all, however, I am most grateful to the many Kenyans who helped this dogo mzungu feel so welcome in their country. Finally, I owe the greatest thank you of all to Ekaterina Aristova, whom I met during the early stages of this project and by its completion had become my wife. I am most grateful for her love and support throughout this project.
