The traditional view that the law of evidence belongs within the common law tradition has obscured the reality that a genuinely cosmopolitan law of evidence is being developed in criminal cases across the common law and civil law traditions. By considering the extent to which a coherent body of common evidentiary standards is being developed in both domestic and international jurisprudence, John Jackson and Sarah Summers chart this development with particular reference to the jurisprudence on the right to a fair trial that has emerged from the European Court of Human Rights and to the attempts in the new international criminal tribunals to fashion agreed approaches towards the regulation of evidence.Law in context.Evidence, CriminalEvidence, Criminal.345/.06Jackson John D.1955-892521Summers Sarah J.UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910457446803321The internationalisation of criminal evidence1993559UNINA
