The main focus is placed on the three pillars which form the ICC’s  foundation pursuant to the Rome Statute:      the preconditions to the exercise of its jurisdiction (Article 12 Rome Statute) the substantive competence, i.e. the core crimes (Article 5-8bis Rome Statute, i.e. genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes, crime of aggression)  the principle of complementarity (Article 17§1 (a) Rome Statute)          The latter governs the ICC's ‘ultimate jurisdiction’, since it is not merely sufficient for a crime to be within the Court's jurisdiction (according to the substantive, geographical, personal and temporal jurisdictional criteria), but the State Party must also be unwilling or unable genuinely to carry out the investigation or prosecution.    Finally yet importantly, the main ‘negative preconditions’ for the Court’s jurisdiction, i.e. immunities (Article 27 Rome Statute) and exceptions via Security Council referrals are thoroughly examined.The book is an excellent resource for scholars as well as practitioners and notably contributes to the existing literature.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49741031702801,"sku":"NGR9783030215286","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/3030215288.jpg?v=1751317252"},{"product_id":"jurisdiction-of-the-international-criminal-court-book-victor-tsilonis-9783031461408","title":"The Jurisdiction of the International Criminal Court","description":"Pembroke revolves around the complexities of love, willpower, and societal expectations set against the backdrop of a traditional New England village. The story focuses on Barnabas Thayer and Charlotte Barnard as they navigate their complicated relationship, particularly through tensions arising from political and personal disagreements. The novel opens with Barnabas preparing to visit Charlotte, his intended bride, only to be turned away after a quarrel between him and Charlotte's father, Cephas Barnard, over their differing political views. This argument leaves deep emotional scars, especially for Charlotte, who longs for Barnabas but is bound by her father's rigid expectations. The story delves into the characters' inner thoughts, highlighting their desires, struggles, and the societal pressures that constrain them. The natural beauty of the changing seasons contrasts with the emotional turmoil they face, setting the stage for interpersonal conflicts and the exploration of love, duty, and the evolving dynamics of a rapidly changing world.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":52152657641745,"sku":"NGR9783031461408","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783031461408.jpg?v=1757617408"},{"product_id":"jurisdiction-of-the-international-criminal-court-book-victor-tsilonis-9783031461378","title":"The Jurisdiction of the International Criminal Court","description":"This book embarks on a comprehensive exploration of the jurisdiction of the International Criminal Court (ICC) and elucidates the three foundational aspects of its jurisdiction as laid out in the Rome Statute: the preconditions for exercising jurisdiction (Article 12 ICCRSt), its substantive competence regarding core crimes (Articles 5-8bis ICCRSt), and the principle of complementarity (Article 17§1(a) ICCRSt).    This principle, crucial to understanding the ICC’s ‘ultimate jurisdiction’, is invoked only when a State Party demonstrates an inability or unwillingness to genuinely undertake investigation or prosecution. The book further probes the ‘negative preconditions’ of the Court’s jurisdiction, in particular, immunities (Article 27 ICCRSt) and exceptions through Security Council referrals (Articles 13(b) and 15 ICCRSt).    Intended for students, scholars, and practitioners alike, this second edition offers invaluable insights into the ICC’s jurisdiction, making a notable contribution to the existing literature. Importantly, it also navigates emerging fields of international criminal law, addressing topical and thought-provoking subjects such as ecocide, cyber warfare, automated lethal weapons, artificial intelligence, and the legal complexities arising from the Russian invasion of Ukraine.         Winner of the Second International Science Prize 2024 of the Hans Günter Brauch Foundation for Peace and Ecology in the Anthropocene (HGBS) on the Theme: Ecocide: Impacts of Wars and\/or Climate Change on Food Security Since 1945.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52488921153809,"sku":"NLS9783031461378","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783031461378.jpg?v=1759877915"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/author-books-by-victor-tsilonis.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
