Intellectual Property Management

Catalog description

This course is about a new and exciting area of law, practice and procedure that in many respects is still in its infancy. During the course you will explore how International Criminal Law and the International Criminal Courts and Tribunals evolved. You will examine their jurisprudence, practice and procedure. Specifically, you will discover how the prosecution operates from the investigation of crimes through to their prosecution. You will look at the role of the defense and the common defenses raised in cases before the courts. An understanding of the full ramifications of International Criminal Law can be challenging because it disturbs some of the well-established concepts that you may have become accustomed to, such as sovereignty, military supremacy, and discrimination.
