• On the Application of a Theory of Indirect Perpetration in Al Bashir: German Doctrine at The Hague?

  2008

  Journal of International Criminal Justice · 38 Zitationen · DOI

  In his application for the issuance of an arrest warrant against the President of Sudan, Omar Hassan Ahmad Al Bashir, the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court argued that Al Bashir did not physically or directly carry out genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes but committed these crimes through members of the state apparatus, the army and the militia. It is the first time that a prosecutor before an international tribunal exclusively bases the charges on the concept of perpetration-by-means. This comment discusses the Prosecutor's application, explores the appearance of the theory of indirect perpetration in international law, and tracks down the roots of the theory of perpetration-by-means of a hierarchical organization in German criminal law. The authors find that charging Al Bashir as an indirect perpetrator appears to be an appropriate description of his involvement in the alleged crimes indeed, given the explicit inclusion of perpetration-by-means in Article 25(3)(a) ICC Statute and the interpretation of Article 25(3) by the Pre-Trial Chamber in Lubanga as well as, most recently, in Katanga and Chui. They further submit that the concept of indirect perpetration could possibly become a key mode of liability in international criminal law.

• Corporate Involvement in Slavery and Criminal Responsibility under International Law

  2016

  Journal of International Criminal Justice · 20 Zitationen · DOI

  In a worldwide market economy with strong demand for cheap labour and a global society that exposes millions of individuals to poverty and deprives them of their economic human rights, exploitation amounting to slavery is profitable, and endemic. And although corporate involvement in modern slavery is notorious and slavery and slavery-related practices may qualify as crimes against humanity or war crimes, commentators have repeatedly noted the general reluctance of institutionalized criminal justice to engage in prosecution of corporate involvement in slavery. This article aims to shed some light on the legal issues at the intersection of slavery, corporate action and international criminal law. Beginning with drawing a basic distinction between crime under international law and transnational crime, the analysis delves into criminal responsibility under international law. It then proceeds in two steps. First, the author examines the definitions of crimes under international law as they are laid down in the Statute of the International Criminal Court, and enquires which of these are applicable to the prosecution of slavery and slavery-related practices, what are their requirements and what are the major problems of their charging. Second, the author turns to issues of attribution: how is criminal responsibility to be attributed and to whom, i.e. the corporation itself or the individual corporate officer? The article concludes with a plea to take advantage of the existing framework of international criminal law and to apply it more determinedly to corporate contexts.
