Without presenting a full definition, it can be said that the notion of judicial lawmaking implies the idea that courts create normative expectations beyond the individual case. That is, our question is whether courts' normative declarations have an effect which is abstract and general. Our purpose here is to ask about judicial lawmaking in this sense with respect to international criminal courts and tribunals. In particular, we will focus on the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia (ICTY). No other international criminal court or tribunal has issued so many judgments as the ICTY, so it seems a particularly useful focus for examining the creation of normative expectations.
Der Beitrag gibt eine rechtshistorische Einführung in die Konzeption der Weimarer Reichsverfassung. Da juristische Erkenntnis fast immer den zeitlichen Kontext zu berücksichtigen hat, beginnt die Untersuchung mit der Schilderung der Voraussetzungen und der Entstehungsgeschichte dieses Verfassungswerks. Daran schließt sich eine umfassende Darstellung ihres Regelungsgefüges an, ehe zum Schluss derjenige Aspekt näher beleuchtet wird, der in der Forschung als Kompromisscharakter der Weimarer Reichsverfassung bezeichnet wird.
