Sexual crimes as weapons of war: new trajectories towards a more effective gender justice at the International Criminal Court.

in Giurisprudenza Penale Web, 2020, 2 – ISSN 2499-846X

This paper seeks to investigate the reasons behind the lack of convictions, so far, by the International Criminal Court for sexual crimes. This dissertation aims to answer the core questions of this essay:  what are the grey areas of the current state of international criminal law for providing an adequate level of protection and access to justice for women? Taking into account the special nature of wartime sexual violence, is the interpretation provided by the ICC appropriate for it?
