- Abstract
- (en) Some legal orders have enacted laws according to which they recognize themselves the right to exercise universal jurisdiction. That means, to prosecute and punish foreign people who have committed crimes of genocide or against humanity abroad. Pursuing the common interest of international community for the respect of humanity, the exercise of criminal jurisdiction doesn't rely anymore on the traditional criteria of territoriality and nationality. But what are the principles of punishment in this perspective ?
