After reviewing thousands of pages of transcripts from various international criminal tribunals, the author reveals that international criminal trials are beset by numerous and severe fact-finding impediments that substantially impair the tribunals' ability to determine who did what to whom. These fact-finding impediments have heretofore received virtually no publicity, let alone scholarly treatment, and they are deeply troubling not only because they raise grave concerns about the accuracy of the judgments currently being issued but because they can be expected to similarly impair the next generation of international trials that will be held at the International Criminal Court. After setting forth her empirical findings, the author considers their conceptual and normative implications. The author concludes that international criminal tribunals purport a fact-finding competence that they do not possess, and as a consequence, base their judgments on a less precise, more amorphous method of fact-finding than they publicly acknowledge. The book ends with an exploration of various normative questions, including the most foundational: whether the international tribunals' fact-finding impediments fatally undermine the international criminal justice project"--Provided by publisher "This book explores international criminal fact-finding to reveal that criminal trials are beset by impediments that impair their ability to determine who did what to whom"--Provided by publisher Internationaler Strafgerichtshof (DE-588)3042935-3 gnd Beweisführung (DE-588)4227233-6 gnd Beweis (Recht) Völkerstrafrecht idsbb Völkerstrafrecht Beweis (Recht) idsbb Internationale Gerichte Völkerstrafrecht idsbb Völkerstrafrecht Internationale Gerichte idsbb International criminal courts Evidence, Criminal Droit et fait (RERO)A021026003 rero Procédure (droit) (RERO)A021008941 rero Tribunaux criminels internationaux (RERO)A021056342 rero Droit pénal international (RERO)A021038689 rero Témoins (RERO)A021016936 rero rero dr-sys D 19 h BK020000 XK020000 XK020000 rwimon201010f rosi 101026 rwiswk201012b cont idszbz Z2 RWI-W RWI-201010 ZB345 Z01 rw SzZuIDS BS/BE RERO RE31013 RE31013 RE310130001 D 19 h COMB 2010 nedm 68718 RERO RE61050 RE61050 RE610500001 D 19 h COMB 2010 BFDA 63416 RERO RE61087 RE61087 RE610870002 341.4 HEIA 66926 IDSBB A208 A208 208FS JF K III 2121 FBS H.C.2361/2010 NEBIS Z16 Z16 Z1601 Wad 840 IDSBB B464 B464 464FS JFS 14.154/ 50 NELB4641407 / B464VE NEBIS 100 1- Combs Nancy Amoury IDSBB 100 1- Combs Nancy Amoury RERO 100 1- Combs Nancy Amoury (IDREF)117467790 cre NEBIS ZAD50 EBI01 Z16 https://opac.nebis.ch/objects/pdf/z16_978-0-521-11115-7_01.pdf Titelblatt und Inhaltsverzeichnis VIEW pdf SWISSBIB 282859438
