| Abstract [eng] |
Nowadays, military tribunals have become a common phenomenon because they form the most effective response of the international community to war crimes. However, their appearance resulted from a long discourse after the Second World War in the context of applying measures of international legal support for bringing war criminals to justice. Nevertheless, a responsibility that existed at that time was objective from the point of view of international criminal law. Since most war crimes are criminal acts under the laws of almost all states without exception, it is logical that the onset of responsibility is an unavoidable objective fact. However, the principal value of such a national process cannot be compared to an international one since only in the conditions of a military tribunal as a form of criminal prosecution, recognized by most countries of the world, is the most crucial goal of punishment for war crimes - public prevention - achieved. |
