Produktbeschreibung
Reydams' point of departure is the need for a context-sensitive analysis. The municipal laws are thus placed in the larger context of a country's views on criminal jurisdiction generally and the case discussions pay detailed attention to the factual and legal context of each case. This approach provides the reader with the reasons why the individual was, or was not, brought to justice in a third country. The inclusion of (translated) texts of municipal statutes, of (translated) excerpts from judicial decisions, and of commentaries by legal scholars makes this volume an important resource for decision makers and legal practitioners, national and international.
This study is a about the ambit of national criminal law. Can a country prosecute and punish a foreigner for a crime committed abroad against another foreigner? This book develops an international legal framework for the problem and examines in great detail the practice in fourteen countries including the US and leading European and Commonwealth jurisdictions.
