Abstract

This article deals with recent developments in Germany in relation to international criminal cases. It describes how the German courts interpreted and applied the law on the cases and on the international crimes committed outside of Germany. In addition, it raises the alternative criminal prosecution of the persons who were involved in the international criminal activities abroad. Since 2015 the workload of German judiciary because of the active prosecution of international crimes was dramatically increased. Cases of international crimes are now part of everyday life for public prosecutors and courts in Germany. The number of cases has also led to the establishment of a modern jurisprudence on international criminal law. These developments are also of great interest outside of Germany, but remain largely unknown.
