LAW 6441 International Criminal Law 2 or 3 Hours
This course will introduce students to international criminal law during the semester with a focus on four aspects of this area of law. First, we will begin the semester with a general introduction to the historical evolution of international criminal law over time. Second, we will focus on a number of U.S. domestic statutes that criminalize international conduct. Third, we will examine the application of the U.S. Constitution and U.S. Rules of Criminal Procedure to international criminal cases. Fourth, towards the end of the semester, we will examine more closely the evolution of international tribunals to prosecute crimes of “international concern” and learn more about the elements of these four fundamental international crimes. The materials covered in this course will be vital to those planning to undertake any type of criminal law career, whether with a domestic or international focus.
