There are many variables of territoriality available to national courts under contemporary international law. Does the same apply to the International Criminal Court? And if so, what are the limits to the teleological expansion of the Court's territorial jurisdiction as regards, for example, partial commission of a crime in State not Party territory, crimes committed over the internet or crimes committed in occupied territories? Michael Vagias's analysis of the law and procedure surrounding the territorial jurisdiction of the Court examines issues such as the application of localisation theories of territoriality and the means of interpretation for article 12(2)(a); the principle of legality (nullum crimen sine lege) and human rights law for the interpretation of jurisdictional provisions; compétence de la compétence; crimes committed over the internet; and the procedure for jurisdictional objections.

- Explores whether the considerations of territoriality for national courts are the same as those for the International Criminal Court
- Elucidates both the law as it stands, and the procedure of the court
Reviews & endorsements
'One of the most useful aspects of this meticulously researched and highly analytical text is its comprehensive examination of the current, albeit limited, jurisprudence of the ICC in the context of the Court's jurisdiction. The final chapter provides a valuable overview of the ICC's procedural framework on jurisdiction that will no doubt be of use to scholars and practitioners alike.' Monique Cormier, Journal of International Criminal Justice
