Proving International Crimes (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book demonstrates that, owing to the flexibility built into the legal frameworks, the law of international criminal evidence is often unpredictable and uncertain. To this end, it argues for the development of a coherent epistemic framework driven by two guiding principles: rectitude of decision and the highest standards of fairness.
