The Complementarity Regime of the International Criminal Court
This book analyses how the complementarity regime of the ICC’s Rome Statute can be implemented in member states, specifically focusing on African states and Nigeria. Complementarity is the principle that outlines the primacy of national courts to prosecute a defendant unless a state is ‘unwilling’ or ‘genuinely unable to act’, assuming the crime is of a ‘sufficient gravity’ for the International Criminal Court (ICC). It is stipulated in the Rome Statute without a clear and comprehensive framework for how states can implement it. The book proposes such a framework and argues that a mutually inclusive interpretation and application of complementarity would increase domestic prose...

An Introduction to the International Criminal Court
Authoritative, succinct and up-to-date introduction to the law and practice of the International Criminal Court.
Principled International Criminal Justice
Commencing its search for a principled international criminal justice, this book argues that the Preamble to the Rome Statute requires a very different notion of justice than that which would be expected in domestic jurisdictions. This thinking necessitates theorising what international criminal justice requires in terms of its legitimacy much more than normative invocations, which in their unreality can endanger the satisfaction of two central concerns – the punitive and the harm-minimisation dimensions. The authors suggest that because of the unique nature and form of the four global crimes, pre-existing proof technologies are failing prosecutors and judges, forcing the development of an...
The International Criminal Court and Complementarity
This systematic, contextual and practice-oriented account of complementarity explores the background and historical expectations associated with complementarity, its interpretation in prosecutorial policy and judicial practice, its context (ad hoc tribunals, universal jurisdiction, R2P) and its impact in specific situations (Colombia, Congo, Uganda, Central African Republic, Sudan and Kenya). Written by leading experts from inside and outside the Court and scholars from multiple disciplines, the essays combine theoretical inquiry with policy recommendations and the first-hand experience of practitioners. It is geared towards academics, lawyers and policy-makers who deal with the impact and application of international criminal justice and its interplay with peace and security, transitional justice and international relations.
The International Criminal Court and Africa
This book considers the legal and political dimensions of the relationship between the International Criminal Court and Africa, looking at the role of the European Union, African Union, and African diplomacy on the issue of sovereignty and impunity for international crimes.
Ein Ende der Straflosigkeit?
Immer wieder gerät der Kongo wegen der schweren Menschenrechtsverletzungen in die Schlagzeilen, die mal von den Kämpfer*innen bewaffneter Gruppen, mal von Angehörigen der Armee, oft aber auch von Mitgliedern der eigenen Familie begangen werden. Weil die Taten nur selten ein juristisches Nachspiel haben, wurden in den letzten Jahren vermehrt mobile Gerichte eingesetzt, die schwere Verbrechen ahnden sollen, darunter Mord, Totschlag und Straftaten gegen die sexuelle Selbstbestimmung. Mobile Gerichte führen Strafverfahren nach den allgemeinen gesetzlichen Vorschriften durch und zwar dort, wo sich Vertreter*innen des Staates sonst kaum blicken lassen, nämlich in den Dörfern abseits der Verk...
The African Criminal Court
This book offers the first comprehensive and in-depth analysis of the provisions of the ‘Malabo Protocol’—the amendment protocol to the Statute of the African Court of Justice and Human and Peoples’ Rights—adopted by the African Union at its 2014 Summit in Malabo, Equatorial Guinea. The Annex to the protocol, once it has received the required number of ratifications, will create a new Section in the African Court of Justice and Human and Peoples’ Rights with jurisdiction over international and transnational crimes, hence an ‘African Criminal Court’. In this book, leading experts in the field of international criminal law analyze the main provisions of the Annex to the Malabo ...
