Lecture on “Corporate Crimes and the ICC” at Summer School in Galway 16-20 June 2014

 

 

The annual International Criminal Court Summer School at the National University of Ireland (Galway) will take place on 16-20 June 2014.

The Summer School consists of five days of intensive lectures given by leading specialists on the subject. The summer school is attended by legal professionals, academics, postgraduate students and NGOs. Participants are provided with a detailed working knowledge of the establishment of the Court, its structures and operations, and the applicable law. Lectures also speak to related issues in international criminal law, including: genocide, war crimes, crimes against humanity, the crime of aggression, universal jurisdiction, immunities, and the role of victims. This year they also have a lecture specifically on Africa and the ICC.

I will be teaching a class on Thursday 19 June on “Corporate Crimes and the International Criminal Court”.

Full details can be found on the Summer School’s dedicated website.
