Resumen de What Remains of the Principle of the Legality in International Criminal Law? Considerations on the Relevance of the Radbruch Formular
This essay is an attempt to demonstrate, that International Criminal Law flexibilizes substantially the requirements for the recognition of international criminal norms with the objective of maintaining an apparently strict principle of legality. However, this approach is unsatisfactory, since there is a concealed recourse to suprapositive principles which are disguised as positive Law. Therefore, the formula proposed by Gustav Radbruch represents a more sincere way to face the question of the limits of positive Law. Hence this essay emphasizes the methodological value of this formula and analyzes its scope and problems regarding its application.
