The Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court defines more
than ninety crimes that fall within the Court's jurisdiction:
genocide, other crimes against humanity, war crimes and aggression.
How these crimes are interpreted contributes to findings of
individual criminal liability, and moreover affects the perceived
legitimacy of the Court. And yet, to date, there is no agreed-upon
approach to interpreting these definitions. This book offers
practitioners and scholars a guiding principle, arguments and aids
necessary for the interpretation of international crimes. Leena
Grover surveys the jurisprudence of the International Criminal
Tribunals for the former Yugoslavia and Rwanda before presenting a
model of interpretive reasoning that integrates the guidance within
the Rome Statute into articles 31-33 of the Vienna Convention on
the Law of Treaties (1969).
