Abstract

The concept of ‘admissibility’, whether in the context of domestic criminal law or international criminal law, has different connotations and may vary depending on the circumstance of its application. The notion is commonly related or attached to evidentiary rules: i.e. the admissibility of evidence. ¹ The purpose of this chapter is to discuss the concept of admissibility from a different perspective; namely, the admissibility of cases before international criminal institutions.
