Abstract

Putin's 2022 war in Ukraine began a global debate about the circumstances under which the crime of aggression can be prosecuted in international courts and tribunals. This article discusses alternative International Law strategies for holding those responsible for crimes of aggression fully accountable, which emphasise the need to redefine the crime of aggression from a human rights perspective. With an emphasis on human security, the text seeks to promote an interdisciplinary discussion of the subject between International Law and International Relations. This concept, developed within the framework of international relations, emphasises the individual as the referent of security analysis.
