Universal jurisdiction : international and municipal legal perspectives
Bok av Luc Reydams
This study is about the ambit of national criminal law. Can a country prosecute and punish a foreigner for a crime committed abroad against another foreigner? Reydams first identifies the international legal issues which arise when a State exercises extraterritorial jurisdiction generally. He then brings together detailed accounts of universal jurisdiction in fourteen countries: Australia; Austria; Belgium; Canada; Denmark; France; Germany; Israel; the Netherlands;
Senegal; Spain; Switzerland; the United Kingdom; and the United States.
