Cíle předmětu
At the end of the course students should be able to:
1) Understand and explain the key offenses in international criminal law, modes of liability, defenses, and sentences
2) Work with information on national legal institutions, international courts, and also interdisciplinary sources such as criminology, anthropology, sociology, and post-colonial theory
3) Make reasoned decisions about the gains but, also, the shortcomings of prosecuting and imprisoning perpetrators of international crimes, in particular, when prosecutions and imprisonment supplant other forms of justice including truth commissions, traditional ceremonies, restitution, memorialization, and restorative justice
4) Make deductions when it comes to realities that criminal law struggles to articulate, that is, human emotions such as forgiveness and vengeance; the reality that perpetrators may be tragic and compromised, and vicitms imperfect; the unevenness, power politics, and selectivity that corrode law’s legitimacy; the relevance of due process; and the expressive value of trials, including show trials
5) Interpret complex legal judgments and account for how they may be explained to victims and how they may serve (or not) to authenticate history
