The prevailing view in the case-law interprets the respective 'intent to destroy requirement as a special or specific intent (dolus specialis) stressing its volitional or purpose-based tendency. While this view has been followed for a long time in legal doctrine without further ado, it has recently been challenged by knowledge- and structure-based approaches, which have not received sufficient attention. A historical, literal, systematic and teleological interpretation of the 'intent to destroy' requirement, taking into account the particular structure of the genocide offence and the meaning of 'intent' in comparative law, reveals that the traditional view can no longer be maintained. It should be replaced by a combined structure- and knowledge-based approach that distinguishes according to the status and role of the (low-, mid- and top-level) perpetrators. Thus, the purpose-based intent should be upheld only with regard to the top- and mid-level perpetrators, whereas for the low-level perpetrators knowledge of the genocidal context should suffice. Lastly, this new approach requires a fresh look at the 'intent to destroy' requirement in cases of participation in genocide."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1017/S1816383110000056"],["dc.identifier.isi","000278419400009"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/55785"],["dc.notes.status","zu prüfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.publisher","Cambridge Univ Press"],["dc.relation.issn","1816-3831"],["dc.title","What does 'intent to destroy' in genocide mean?"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]Details DOI WOS2020Journal Article [["dc.bibliographiccitation.firstpage","689"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.issue","3"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.journal","Journal of International Criminal Justice"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.lastpage","700"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.volume","18"],["dc.contributor.author","Ambos, Kai"],["dc.date.accessioned","2021-04-14T08:24:14Z"],["dc.date.available","2021-04-14T08:24:14Z"],["dc.date.issued","2020"],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1093/jicj/mqaa019"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/81215"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","DOI Import GROB-399"],["dc.relation.eissn","1478-1395"],["dc.relation.issn","1478-1387"],["dc.title","The ECCC’s Contribution to Substantive ICL"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]Details DOI2016Journal Article [["dc.bibliographiccitation.firstpage","495"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.issue","3"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.journal","Journal of Conflict & Security Law"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.lastpage","504"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.volume","21"],["dc.contributor.author","Ambos, Kai"],["dc.date.accessioned","2020-12-10T18:19:19Z"],["dc.date.available","2020-12-10T18:19:19Z"],["dc.date.issued","2016"],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1093/jcsl/krw010"],["dc.identifier.eissn","1467-7962"],["dc.identifier.issn","1467-7954"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/75201"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","DOI Import GROB-354"],["dc.title","Individual Criminal Responsibility for Cyber Aggression"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]Details DOI2016Journal Article [["dc.bibliographiccitation.firstpage","ngw024"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.journal","Human Rights Law Review"],["dc.contributor.author","Ambos, Kai"],["dc.date.accessioned","2020-12-10T18:19:15Z"],["dc.date.available","2020-12-10T18:19:15Z"],["dc.date.issued","2016"],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1093/hrlr/ngw024"],["dc.identifier.eissn","1744-1021"],["dc.identifier.issn","1461-7781"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/75181"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","DOI Import GROB-354"],["dc.title","The Crime of Genocide and the Principle of Legality under Article 7 of the European Convention on Human Rights"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]Details DOI2017Journal Article [["dc.bibliographiccitation.firstpage","589"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.issue","3"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.journal","Criminal Law Forum"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.lastpage","628"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.volume","28"],["dc.contributor.author","Ambos, Kai"],["dc.date.accessioned","2020-12-10T14:11:28Z"],["dc.date.available","2020-12-10T14:11:28Z"],["dc.date.issued","2017"],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1007/s10609-017-9334-7"],["dc.identifier.eissn","1572-9850"],["dc.identifier.issn","1046-8374"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/71084"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","DOI Import GROB-354"],["dc.title","Review Essay: Liberal Criminal Theory"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]Details DOI2003Journal Article [["dc.bibliographiccitation.firstpage","225"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.issue","3"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.journal","Criminal Law Forum"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.lastpage","259"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.volume","14"],["dc.contributor.author","Ambos, Kai"],["dc.date.accessioned","2019-07-17T12:16:31Z"],["dc.date.available","2019-07-17T12:16:31Z"],["dc.date.issued","2003"],["dc.description.abstract","Cherif Bassiouni’s second revised edition of Crimes Against Humanity in International Criminal Law gives a comprehensive legal and historical analysis of crimes against humanity covering its emergence in positive international criminal law, its legal development and its theoretical foundations.

In order for an accused to be convicted pursuant to a certain mode of liability, a trial chamber ought to ensure that the requisite actus reus and mens rea are established beyond any reasonable doubt on the basis of the evidence before it.
