Guest lecture as part of the course on European and International Criminal Law:
As conflicts all over the world increase and news of atrocities committed continuously disturb the international community, questions on how to prosecute those responsible become more and more prevalent. Additionally, the term “International Criminal Court” has been a topic of discussion, especially with the wars waging all over the world and possible war crimes being committed. However, the pathway of these crimes to the ICC or any international prosecution of individuals as a consequence to their actions is less known.
But how could such international trials be avoided in the first place?
Speakers Prof. Dr. Robert Esser of the University of Passau as well as MAJ Jason Young of the US Army in Hohenfels and Sophia-Marie Klingler of the DAJV will share their insights on these two topics as well as experiences and look forward to a lively discussion with participants afterwards - whether it be in person or virtually via Zoom.
