Sažetak
As stated in the Preamble of ICCSt, the jurisdiction of the ICC is limited to the most serious crimes of concern to the international community as a whole that threaten “security, peace, and the well-being of the world.” In my opinion, serious (transitional) economic offences undoubtedly belong to this narrative and while some of these crimes are already listed as war crimes under the ICCSt (i.e. pillage), they should also find their place in the Statute during peacetime as crimes against humanity. Ignoring that serious economic crimes, often represent economic violence characteristic of transitional and post-conflict countries, can lead to another cycle of armed conflict and/or physical violence as well as to internal and external insecurity.
