  • The Nexus Requirement for War Crimes

    A Cassese•ARTICLE•Journal of International Criminal…•2012•Cited by: 3

    Not all crimes committed during an armed conflict constitute war crimes. It is widely held in case law and legal literature that, in order to qualify as a war crime, criminal conduct must be ‘closely related to the hostilities’.1 This relationship between armed conflict and conduct, termed ‘nexus’ (or ‘link’), serves to distinguish between war crimes, on the one side, and ‘ordinary’ crimes committed during — but unrelated to — an armed conflict, …

  • The Legitimacy of International Criminal Tribunals and the Current Prospects of International Criminal Justice

    Open Access•A Cassese•ARTICLE•Leiden Journal of International Law•2012•Cited by: 6

    Having identified the differences between the concept of legality and the much more complex concept of legitimacy, the author scrutinizes the legality and the legitimacy of the existing international criminal tribunals. Their legality has been put in doubt only concerning the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) and the Special Tribunal for Lebanon (STL), but the criticisms have been or could be overcome. Assessing the…

  • Reflections on International Criminal Justice

    A Cassese•ARTICLE•Journal of International Criminal…•2011•Cited by: 2

    Your Majesty, your Royal Highness, Excellencies, Ladies and Gentlemen, In the dark labyrinth of our lives, one of the few things of which we can be certain is the intolerable amount of suffering that human beings cause to one another through cruelty, armed clashes, and aggression. Criminal justice is among the most civilized responses to such violence. It channels the victims’ hatred and yearning for bloody revenge into collective institutions th…

  • Under What Conditions May Belligerents be Acquitted of the Crime of Attacking an Ambulance

    A Cassese•ARTICLE•Journal of International Criminal…•2008

    The author discusses a decision handed down in 2007 by an Italian military court concerning the firing by Italian troops on an Iraqi ambulance in 2004, at Nassiriyah, resulting in the killing of four civilians. The court held that the action was covered by the defence of putative special military necessity and consequently acquitted the two defendants. The author argues that the accurate basis on which to exclude criminal culpability, both under …

    A Cassese•ARTICLE•European Journal of International…•2007•Cited by: 14

    In its recent Genocide judgment, the International Court of Justice discussed the question of whether the acts of genocide carried out at Srebrenica by Bosnian Serb armed forces must be attributed to the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (FRY), as claimed by Bosnia. It applied the ‘effective control’ test set out in Nicaragua, reaching a negative conclusion. The Court also held that the broader ‘overall control’ test enunciated by the International …

  • On Some Problematical Aspects of the Crime of Aggression

    Open Access•A Cassese•ARTICLE•Leiden Journal of International Law•2007•Cited by: 3

    The essay argues that the absence of an international treaty definition of aggression in international law should not preclude the prosecution of its perpetrators. Two legal regimes of responsibility, namely the prohibition against aggression as an international wrongful act and the crime of aggression have been entangled. Once one separates the criminal liability of individuals from state responsibility, a definition of the crime of aggression c…

    The world community had, and still has, high expectations for the impartial rendering of justice by the International Criminal Court (ICC) which, unlike other international criminal tribunals, bears a universal scope and is charged with administering justice in a non-selective manner. However, the first situations brought before the Court and their handling by the Prosecutor give rise to a number of concerns. The practice of self-referrals by sta…

    The recent judgment of the ICJ has indubitably shed light on a rather obscure area of international law, that is, the legal regulation of the personal immunities of foreign ministers. However, one should express serious misgivings about some of the Court's conclusions. In particular, the Court, besides omitting to pronounce upon the admissibility of universal criminal jurisdiction, failed both (i) to distinguish between so-called functional immun…

  • Terrorism is Also Disrupting Some Crucial Legal Categories of International Law

    The terrorist attacks on the US on 11 September 2001 have potentially shattering consequences for international law.

The author agrees with Simma that NATO's action falls outside the scope of the United Nations Charter and, by that token, is illegal under international law.
