Abstract

In the paper, after outlining the criminological background, namely the corporate criminality in the field of core international crimes and some possible arguments in favour of criminal accountability of corporations on an international level, the case law of the International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg and the so-called subsequent Nuremberg trials is introduced. Finally, the third part is devoted to examine the questions of the codification process of the Statute of the International Criminal Court in relation to the organizational liability, putting the emphasis on answering the question: was there and is there an international court or tribunal that can exercise criminal jurisdiction over corporations?
