Description

Cultural defences are claims that certain aspects of a defendant's cultural background should be taken into consideration by courts when adjudicating on their guilt or innocence. This book considers how cultural defences can be opened before the International Criminal Court, focusing on the sources of law enshrined in the Statute and the defences recognised under it. It also analyses the reasons for and against the acceptance of cultural defences at the Court, and makes recommendations as to whether cultural issues should be taken into consideration at the trial, sentencing and / or reparations stage of ICC cases.
