Abstract
When Mark Drumbl offered to help me organize an event to mark the publication of my first book, Invisible Atrocities: The Aesthetic Biases of International Criminal Justice, I was thrilled to say the least. The resulting event, a day spent in conversation discussing themes and claims made in the book, proved to be the highlight of my relatively young academic career. I remain deeply appreciative of the care each participant took in reading the book and outlining their reactions to it. Every contribution to this issue raises important questions in relation to my claims in the book and is more than deserving of a rigorous, sustained response. In the interests of time and space, however, I will limit myself to some brief general thoughts on themes I have identified across contributions. In doing so, I make every attempt to respond to individual comments and critiques raised by contributors.
