Four countries were selected as primary examples of these two legal traditions: the United States, England and Wales, Germany and Poland.  The first layer of analysis focuses on selected elements of the model of accusation that are crucial to the model adopted by the ICC. These are: development of the notion of the prosecutor?s independence in view of their ties to the countries and the Security Council; the nature and limits of the prosecutor?s discretional powers to initiate proceedings before the ICC; the reasons behind the prosecutor?s choice of both defendants and charges; the role the prosecutor plays in the procedure of disclosure of evidence and consensual termination of proceedings; and the determinants of the model of accusation used during trial and appeal proceedings. The second layer of the book consists in an analysis of the motives behind applying particular solutions to create the model of accusation before the ICC. It also shows how the model of accusation gradually evolved in proceedings before the military and ad hoc tribunals: ICTY and ICTR. Moreover, the question of compatibility of procedural institutions is addressed: In what ways does adopting a certain element of criminal procedure, e.g. discretional powers of the prosecutor to initiate criminal proceedings, influence the remaining procedural elements, e.g. the existence of the dossier of a case or the powers of a judge to change the legal classification of the criminal behavior appearing in the indictment? 606 $aInternational criminal law 606 $aInternational law 606 $aPrivate international law 606 $aConflict of laws 606 $aInternational humanitarian law 606 $aLaw?Philosophy 606 $aLaw 606 $aInternational Criminal Law $3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/R19040 606 $aSources and Subjects of International Law, International Organizations$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/R19010 606 $aPrivate International Law, International & Foreign Law, Comparative Law $3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/R14002 606 $aInternational Humanitarian Law, Law of Armed Conflict$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/R19030 606 $aTheories of Law, Philosophy of Law, Legal History$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/R11011 615 0$aInternational criminal law. 615 0$aInternational law. 615 0$aPrivate international law. 615 0$aConflict of laws. 615 0$aInternational humanitarian law. 615 0$aLaw?Philosophy. 615 0$aLaw. 615 14$aInternational Criminal Law . 615 24$aSources and Subjects of International Law, International Organizations. 615 24$aPrivate International Law, International & Foreign Law, Comparative Law . 615 24$aInternational Humanitarian Law, Law of Armed Conflict. 615 24$aTheories of Law, Philosophy of Law, Legal History. 676 $a340 676 $a340.1 676 $a340.2 676 $a340.9 676 $a341 676 $a341.48 676 $a345 700 $aKuczy?ska$b Hanna$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01227618 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910483584803321 996 $aThe Accusation Model Before the International Criminal Court$92850294 997 $aUNINA
