Contemporary Legal Approach to the
Concept of International Crime
Abstract
It is well known that crime, as a social phenomenon, is evolving, with new forms emerging, and the new types of international crime usually cover vast regions rather than just a few countries. In many cases, combating international crimes within the borders of a single country is not possible, making the issue a global one that leads to severe consequences.
The global nature of these crimes not only spans multiple territories but also poses significant public danger, resulting in considerable loss of life and substantial damage, leading to economic crises, drastic climate changes, and large-scale wars, among other issues.
As a result, states must place great importance on cooperation in this area, strengthen international relations, and work towards achieving new agreements.
