This book offers a comprehensive analysis of the major areas of
international criminal law (ICL). It approaches its subject matter
from both a criminal law and an international law perspective,
analysing the various topics exhaustively but in an accessible
manner. While looking at the jurisprudence of the international
tribunals, it is not confined to this approach, instead looking at
all the fields in which ICL is employed. Thus it covers the theory
of ICL, including the concepts of individual responsibility, the
sources of ICL, State criminality, legality and legitimacy; the
subjective (mens rea) and objective (actus reus) elements of
international crimes and the particular position of the
International Criminal Court Statute; the various modes of
liability and participation in international crimes; the doctrine
of command responsibility; defences and grounds for excluding
liability; immunities; an extensive analysis of all war crimes;
crimes against humanity; genocide; the crime of aggression; and,
international criminal law of the sea, including piracy, armed
robbery at sea, pollution-related offences, fisheries-related
offences, maritime terrorism, injury to cables and pipelines,
illegal broadcasting and enforcement against such offences. It also
covers: transnational crimes, including organised crime,
corruption, money laundering, illicit trafficking of drugs and
postal offences; particular international offences against the
person, especially slavery and related practices, apartheid,
enforced disappearances and torture; the legal contours of the
crime of terrorism; an analysis of the historical development of
ICL and of the legal processes relating to the Nuremberg Tribunal;
an analysis of the UN tribunals for Yugoslavia and Rwanda; an
examination of the International Criminal Court; an analysis of
hybrid internationalised tribunals, such as those of Iraq, Sierra
Leone, Cambodia, East Timor, Kosovo, Lebanon and Lockerbie, as well
as an examination of truth commissions and amnesties; the various
strands of criminal jurisdiction; and, the different modes of
inter-State cooperation in criminal matters, including cooperation
with international tribunals, extradition, illegal rendition and
mutual legal assistance.
