International Criminal Procedure and Disclosure : An Attempt to Better Understand and Regulate Disclosure and Communication at the ICC on the Basis of a Comprehensive and Comparative Theory of Crimina
Bok av Alexander Heinze
»International Criminal Procedure and Disclosure« analyses the different interpretations of disclosure rules at the International Criminal Court (ICC) and introduces a new disclosure regime, where the parties will be able to actually foresee the consequences of their conduct (i.e. non-disclosure). Through a critical case law analysis Heinze illustrates that an inconsistent classification of the nature of the ICC-process has - via the application of a contextual interpretation - a direct impact on decisions about concrete procedural issues, of which disclosure is the most prominent example. For this very reason Heinze re-classifies the ICC-process and concludes that the ICC is a hierarchically structured international organisation with a »policy-implementing« form of procedure, that nevertheless contains adversarial elements usually found in a system of coordinate authority with a »conflict-solving« form of justice. This classification serves as a »general jurisprudence« in its technical sense, which enables the Judges to conduct a coherent contextual interpretation. The book thereby establishes a connection between legal theory, philosophy, sociology and comparative law on the one hand and a highly relevant procedural question on the other hand.
