المسؤولية الجنائية الدولية عن أعمال المرتزقة

Abstract EN

Despite the fact that the phenomenon of mercenaries was presented, and its relevance to the idea of war, and the fact that it was the subject of many scholars and writers who dealt with it.

However, the bad conduct of their activities did not raise international attention.

It was only explicitly mentioned in the early 1960s Where the period of time witnessed the use of mercenaries to suppress national liberation movements, And the movements of independence from foreign colonialism, the international community began to view the activity of mercenaries as illegal activities and their perpetrators as criminals and outlaws.

At the level of international humanitarian law, the question of mercenaries was raised as one of the subjects to be addressed.

Attempts have begun to develop a definition of the term mercenaries, through which criteria can be defined which define controls for this category within the framework of international law.

We find that it is important in the legal field to define any group or group of persons whose legal status is to be defined.

This applies, of course, to our area of research.

We found it necessary to divide this subject into two requirements.

First, we review the concept of mercenaries and the statement of criminal responsibility The second requirement will be allocated to individual criminal responsibility for mercenary crimes, which will also be divided into two branches, the first being the individual criminal responsibility for the crimes of the mercenary.

Ge, and the second of the responsibility of commanders and superiors for acts of mercenaries.
