Fifty years after the Nuremberg trials, many convictions imposed by the tribunals for the former Yugoslavia and Rwanda are still based on customary international law alone. The International Criminal Court, by contrast, has not yet had much opportunity to give more guidance on this matter. Hence, it is worthwhile to provide an overview of the current status of custom by analysing the ad hoc tribunal’s case law on this point. Including a comprehensive synopsis of current literature and a contrast of the ad hoc tribunal’s case law with the jurisprudence of the International Court of Justice, this book offers an inclusive insight into the source’s past and future.Developments in international law ;v. 62.Customary law, InternationalInternational criminal courtsCustomary law, International.International criminal courts.341Peters Birgit1978-1500084MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910785308903321Developments in customary international law3726605UNINA
