Resumen
SLAVKOVIć, Vukan. Core crimes in the name of “mercy”. UH [online]. 2022, n.294 Epub 01-Jun-2022. ISSN 0253-9276.
International criminal law prohibits certain categories of conduct deemed to be serious crimes, regulates procedures governing investigation, prosecution and punishment, and holds perpetrators individually accountable. The prevention of serious violations of international humanitarian law is essential, particularly in view of the gravity of certain acts, qualified as core crimes (the crime of genocide, war crimes, crimes against humanity and aggression). Since the interest of the international community as a whole is to punish for those incriminations, there are several basic principles upon which international criminal law is based.
