O tribunal de Nuremberg e sua influência no Tribunal Penal Internacional: a submissão do Brasil à jurisdição internacional

Abstract

This paper, through bibliographic and documentary research, and with a descriptive and exploratory approach, seeks to analyze how the Nuremberg Tribunal, a temporary court responsible for trying war criminals from the Second World War, reorganized International Criminal Justice and directly influenced the creation of the International Criminal Court, a permanent international court responsible for trying natural persons. who commit crimes against humanity, war crimes, genocide and aggression, attributing international criminal responsibility to them. In this way, the Second World War is initially analyzed, so that we understand the historical context that influenced not only the creation of the Nuremberg Tribunal and, later, the International Criminal Court, but also the creation of a more protective system for human rights, which places man as a being with duties and rights guaranteed not only in his nation-state, but in the entire international community. Finally, the structure, competence and jurisdiction of the International Criminal Court is analyzed and how Brazil submits to this, and the legal provisions in the Brazilian legal system are verified.
