Fourcans, Claire. "Les violences sexuelles devant les juridictions pénales internationales." Paris 10, 2007. http://www.theses.fr/2007PA100077.
Full textThis thesis concentrates on the treatment of sexual violence by international criminal courts. The International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia, the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda, the Special Court for Sierra Leone and the International Criminal Court are the subject of this study. Based on the feminist legal theory, this research questions whether the applicable law and the procedure before the international criminal courts make an end to the silences surrounding sexual violence committed during armed conflict and humanitarian crisis. International criminal rules should lead to restore the equality between men and women which has been broken by sexual violence. Definitions, qualifications, forms of liability, sentences pronounced to punish sexual violence are analysed in that perspective. Procedural rules related to the proving and to the protection, the participation and the reparation of victims are also studied. International Criminal Tribunals have only partially achieved the goal here addressed. The International Criminal Court may bring more results in the future

Full textBy disclosing the sexual violence they endure, women expose the rights that perpetrators claim and the power they wield. Penal law dealing with sexual violence therefore requires that legislators and judges take a stand as to those rights and power. This research analyzes, from a feminist perspective, how penal law and the legal system comprehend sexual violence such as rape, sexual assault and sexual harassment. Relying on international law and a comparative approach, it considers how our legal system could be changed to provide justice for women

Full textThis study addresses the handling of rape and sexual abuse by the criminal justice system. The legal characterisation of the facts regarding cases of sexual abuse was a crucial issue during the empirical research that was conducted for the purpose of this study among police officers, forensic doctors, and prosecutors. Consent has long been conceptualised from a political theoretic or legal theoretic perspective. This dissertation intends to analyse the concept of consent in light of sociology of law and examines it as an object involving police investigations, forensic medical examinations, and prosecution cases.A 10-month ethnographic research was conducted among the criminal police department of a big city in France. Using the complaints filed with this police department a data base was set up. In addition, a series of interviews were conducted with 18 police officers from three different child abuse investigation units, 10 forensic doctors, 10 prosecutors, and 7 members of a Prefectural committee developing actions fighting violence against women. 5 of their meetings were also observed.This dissertation shows that actors working in the criminal justice system have objectified what non-consent is in three distinct ways. First, actors objectify non-consent by violence: non-consent is evidenced by signs of violence on the body of victims. Second, non-consent is objectified by existing relationships: actors determine constraint by examining the nature of the relation between the respondent and the claimant as well as their respective position in social space. Third, actors objectify non-consent based on emotions: the claimant has to be docile and to openly share her pain while accepting the ordeals required by actors from the criminal justice system.These different interpretations of non-consent, and thus the different perceptions of sexual abuse, are variously distributed among actors according to their professional occupation and the institutional constraints they encounter. Police officers and prosecutors who investigate both incriminating and exonerating evidence are more likely to challenge the victim’s testimony and are more prone to look for pieces of evidence. In addition, the criminal justice system prevents police officers and prosecutors from developing different opinions on cases. In contrast, forensic doctors consider that it is not for them to evaluate whether there has been consent or not. Regarding feminist activists participating in the Prefectural committee fighting violence against women, they strongly question how police officers have framed sexual abuse and consider that this framing blames women for experiencing sexual abuse.Finally, proving the existence of consent is a task that questions the actors’ own traditional representations of sexuality. Women and adolescent girls’ sexuality is perceived by police officers and prosecutors as a personal matter related to love and affects. Men’s sexuality, however, is regarded as a need and sex drive. This dissertation eventually underlines the concern of police officers for feminine subjectivity, which is a singular thing in an institution rewarding masculinity

Full textA whole set of specific rules has been recorded about sexual assaults and minor's sexual abuses, in the light of two different laws. The first one is dated December 23rd 1980 and redefined the crime of rape. The second one dates back to June 17th 1998 and refers to the prevention and repression of sexual offences as well as to minors' protection. Until today, neither sexual assaults nor sexual abuses have been studied thoroughlly, except for sexual offences or sexual and violent offences committed on minors. Considering the particular penal sentence that both of these categories of incrimations raise, it seemed interesting to carry out a synthetic approach. The following work aims at studying the persistence of these rules which appear to be specific. From a legislative and judicial point of view, the global analysis of these rules showed that this movement of specifity did not last and even moved away from its first objectives which were protecting the victim and preventing from a second offence; the latter being balanced between surveillance and rehabilitation. The initially specific nature of these rules have to be put into perspective regarding the penal understanding of these facts and their penal sanction

Full textWe are witnessing an important evolution in Western society of the condemnation and legal justice as regard to sexual violence towards children, teenager especially girls, but also young boys. It is in this context that my research has been carried out. There has been a double inquiry; legislative sociology; and judicial sociology. They put up to date the important placing of age reference, the evolution as regarding sexual norms and representations of illicit sexual relations.The firs investigation of legislative historic sociology carries on the evolution of French penal codes dating from the French Revolution to today. It is censed on slow mutations of categories of incrimination that consent (no longer the matrimonial state) becomes the major point that separates permission and the forbidden. The second inquiry of judicial sociology was carried out int the archives of two correctional courts, two children correctional courts in the South of France. It carries upon the documentation of eighty-one judged cases from 2010 for sexual offences against minors. The aim is to put light upon penal qualification of facts, not only the problem of legal proof but also changes as regard to social and judicial norms. The point these two inquiries have in common i the update of two forms of sexual consent: statuary and situation.Throughout this research, the facts were analyzed from different angles: the social-juridical treatment of ages status (minors vs of age and minors vs minors). The meaning given to the age of consent, and legal responsibility; the legal difficulties as regard to incest and finally gender discrepancies between victims and aggressors

Full textSexual violence today is, as in the past, widely used as a weapon of war and a means of ethnic cleansing. The analysis of international criminal jurisprudence highlights the difficulty of apprehending this new offense in relation to the existing legal categories. The nature of sexual crimes is not reducible to genocide, crimes against humanity, or war crimes. The international judge, through constant legal reasoning, was able to clarify the boundary between sexual offenses and other offenses, to show their scope and intensity to distinguish them from other crimes. This advance in jurisprudence gradually builds a foundation and legitimacy that define elements of the empowerment of sexual crimes under international law. The codification of international law through a new treaty specific to sexual crimes, with provisions defining this particular category of offense, its apprehension and its legal obligations will allow a better repression of this crime

Full textIn this text, the evolution of the legal framework relating to sexual violence against women in international criminal law will be discussed. A legal analysis adopting an historic and a feminist approach will be developed relating to the issue of sexual violence against women addressed by the following international criminal tribunals: International Military Tribunal of Nuremberg, International Military Tribunal of Tokyo, International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia, International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda and the International Criminal Court. The development of international humanitarian law and international human rights law after the Second World War will be also examined in this regard. It will be explained that sexual violence against women, in international criminal law, has been subjected to an historic silence, which persisted until the elaboration of the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court. This Statute stands as a significant normative development even though obstacles and challenges still remain and need to be addressed.

Full textIn law, sex proceeds from the organization of persons into two categories: female and male. Identifying legally people escapes traditionally the individual will. Sex as an element of the state of people is immutable and binary. However, this assignment model leads today to be questioned. On the one hand, transidentitary demands have allowed emerging a concept of identity in terms of fundamental rights and not only in terms of stable identification, imposed by the State. On the other hand, the invisibilization of the intersex people in law and the constraint of the instituted fiction of the binarity of the sexes on their bodies lead to question the legitimacy of the bicategorization and its obligatory character. Finally, the collapse of the naturalist bases of the differentiation of the sexes and the lack of differentiation of norms with respect to sex lead to question the usefulness of the category. Nevertheless, since facts inequalities persist despite the formal equality, gender in its protective dimension may justify a new relevance

Full textDespite all the reforms it has undergone, Quebec's criminal justice continues to be the subject of much criticism from victims of sexual assault in terms of access to justice. Attrition, influence of myths and stereotypes and secondary victimization are significant obstacles faced by victims seeking to access courts and obtain justice. A comparative law analysis with South Africa and New Zealand, subject of similar critiques, shows that these issues of access to justice are common in adversarial-type criminal law systems. Because of the similarities in the substantive, procedural and evidentiary rules of these three systems, the search for justice solutions for Quebecers victims within these foreign systems is relevant. In South Africa and New Zealand, specialized sexual violence courts have been set up to address the "justice deficit" of victims. An analysis of the essential components of each of the models and of the results of the evaluations to which they were subjected leads to the conclusion that they have had a positive impact in their respective jurisdiction: increase in conviction rates, improvement in the quality of testimony, reduction of delays, secondary victimization and the impact of myths and stereotypes, improvement of judges' knowledge of the reality of victims, etc. They therefore represent a promising initiative to improve access to justice for Quebecers victims of sexual assault. These evaluations highlight the pitfalls of specialized sexual violence courts that may compromise this potential and that must be considered before the implementation of such courts.

Full textThis Ph.D. dissertation examines how Iraqi criminal law with regard to sex and sex-related crimes severely discriminates women in Iraq. It looks at this issue in light of ancestral traditions of prejudice and violence against women that are deeply rooted in Iraqi society. Honor is an extremely important notion in the mentalities of Iraqi people. Women are supposed to maintain chastity and sexual purity in order to be considered "honorable". Anything that compromises their chastity, including crimes of which they are victims such as rape, destroys their honor and along with it, that of their entire family. Many women in this situation find themselves killed, injured, or forced to marry their attacker in order to allow their families to recover their honor. This study shows how Iraqi legislation, case law and legal doctrine all contribute to encourage and perpetuate this problem, and suggests some possible solutions

Full textThis study takes a cross-look at French and Lebanese criminal law on the subject of the status of women. It is a question of seeing the divergent evolution between the two States, which at one time had comparable penal provisions discriminating women and granting them a status inferior to that of men. Despite reforms and "acquired" rights, women continue to be the first victims of violence, discrimination, and certain recognized rights are often questioned, inequalities persist in law and in fact. This study proposes to look at the analysis of criminal law from a gender perspective to understand the origins of inequalities, to consider the interaction between law and gender. These elements will help to understand the reasons for the limited evolution of the status of women in French and Lebanese criminal law, to reflect on how the Lebanese criminal law could be reformed and French criminal law could effectively continue its evolution by taking in consideration the concept of gender. The aim is to consolidate women's rights and their status at the legal and practical level and, more generally, to achieve gender equality by accepting differences between women and men as means of wealth and not a source of inequality

Full textThis study concerns actual questions in physical acts of violence towards the women. The legislator was intervened again and again to suppress acts of violence made to the women, like female genital mutilations, forced pregnancy, intimate partner violence, sexual harassment at job, sexual exploitation, procuring and rapes with differentiation between rape in peacetime and in times of war. These physical attacks are volunteers and make obstacles to the realization of the objectives of equality between sexes. Violence against women is a serious obstacle to equality between women and men, and perpetuates inequality. Domestic violence is also very serious. Violence has severe health consequences for the affected, it is a social problem. The recognition and respect throughout Europe for the equal dignity and integrity of both women and men are major objectives

Full textThe present work is an attempt to interpret the way in which the concept of rape emerges as a criminal category, starting from the reflection conducted by the Pseudo-Quintilian on the notion of raptus at the end of the 1st and the beginning of the 2nd century. It is a question of the mechanisms of building legal terminology which take into account the social context and, more concretely, that of the degree of conceptual elaboration to which the Roman jurisprudence under the Severan emperors will come a century later with regard to the qualification of the raptus as crimen vis. Unlike its predecessors (declaimers and jurists), Pseudo-Quintilian understands under the denomination of raptus the illicit sexual act (stuprum), committed with violence (per vim), against the will of the victim who suffers corporeal and moral injury (iniuria). Pseudo-Quintilian addresses this unlawful but not yet illegal practice at the pre-criminal stage, and sets it up as a crimen by implicitly inscribing it in the procedure of vi publica in order to denounce the social tolerance of violence inflicted on a virgin / wife of free status for sexual and / or matrimonial purposes. Starting from the Minor Declamations on rape, which have not been systematically studied as indirect historical evidence of the phenomenon in the first centuries of the Roman Empire, we examine raptus as a crime of violence (crimen vis), based on damage to the physical and moral integrity (iniuria) of a virgin / wife of free status. In the absence of direct testimony on the ancient reality of women who have been raped, we are shifting the interest in the origin of the cultural process which characterizes the life of nubile citizens, i.e. the educational context of Roman patricians which creates female identities with regard to rape. By emphasizing the performance of Pseudo-Quintilian’s persona, we propose a gendered interpretation of raptus as a legal and social phenomenon which engages relations between sexes / status / social classes, and which influences the social reality by its act of enunciation

Full textThe child protection represents a major cause for concern of our law, so that the minor doesn’t sustain damage. This protection is firstly performed by the family. So, it may seem surprising that the child is victim of his family, as far as parents must act in the interests of the child. The notion of child victim of his family doesn’t exist as such in our law. The victim often endures an injury caused by a third person and not by a family member. The study of situations where the child may suffer an infringement of his personality rights, due to act or omission of one of the family members, allowed conceptualization of the notion of child victim of family. It was thus possible to characterize the different realities encountered, according to their similarities or dissimilarities. This empirical analysis led to ascertain categories of child victims of their families and the corresponding legal system. It had especially as a consequence new protection instruments research, appropriate to specifics assumptions studied. This process allowed social or family realities encountered getting to legal validity. It was also an opportunity to bring out foundations of the concept of child victim of family, in so far as law has hallowed situations of child victims of their families. However, emergence of new social realities necessitated the renewal of the concept of child victim of family, in order to alleviate the limits of the foundations of the notion and to guarantee effective representation of this phenomenon in legal speech

Full text“Female genital mutilation” is a contemporary invention that has become an object of political debate since the late 1970s. Legal and medical discourse, followed by feminist discourse, have emerged on the international scene and outlined the contours of a worldwide recognized crime. Originally defined as a public health problem, excision of the clitoris has become the subject of reparation politics of sexuality in the 2000s. France has a unique policy that grants excised women the access to surgical repair of their clitoris. The surgery is reimbursed by the public health insurance system since 2003, providing an equal access to repair for all women and including the right to repair within social policies. This thesis is based on a unique empirical material including an ethnographic observation of two surgery units that practice clitoral repair surgery in Paris metropolitan area, a quantitative analysis of medical records of all patients followed by these units since their creation, and in-depth interviews of 30 women who contacted one of the units. It retraces the logics of the two actors involved in repair surgery: the medical profession and patients. For African women from sub-Saharan Africa, repair reflects a genuine quest for equality in sexuality with unexcised European women. On the medical side, professionals answers requests made by women who are able to express excision as an attack/aggression and to claim their right to repair (“I want to get back what was taken from me”). Clitoral repair is an example of unprecedented repair policy of sexuality, in which medicine, sexuality and excision are questioned

Full textThe misnamed psychosocial risks at work reflect the expression of contempt for the absolute fundamental norm and matrix of human rights : the dignity of the human being. As a manifestation of suffering at work, indecent working conditions and organizations (as defined by the UN) lead to the commodification of humankind as a means of productionat the expense of worker’s fundamental rights, such as the right to health at work. Psychosocial risks at work, which are threats to public health, exempting them from the rule of law on which social order is based, and whose consequences of damage to the physical and mental health of workers affect society as a whole, break the social contract between individuals and the State. The legal obligations laid down by international, European and French texts, require the State and companies to exercise active and not only reactive prevention. The State, as guarantor and protector of respect for dignity and human rights, can use its prerogatives as a public authority to better protect workers’ health.Sociovigilance is then required as a new vigilance resulting from occupational health safety. Combined with the creation of an independent authority in charge of occupational health issues, sociovigilance is accompanied by a new proposal for the organisation of occupational risk prevention in France

Full textThis study looks at the ethical issues of advocacy and rights-based approaches to emergency humanitarian work. Sexual violence has become an instrument of war, used for political and military purposes. Advocacy, which is usually a function of humanitarian human rights organizations, is becoming part of emergency humanitarian response. The use of advocacy in humanitarian settings exposes humanitarian missions to ethical tensions and dilemmas, particularly with regard to access to victims and the defense of their rights, the principle of humanity and the principle of neutrality. Advocacy also represents a danger to the apolitical image of humanitarian organizations and therefore undermines the confidence of belligerent states in conflicts. In view of these dangers of advocacy, the question arises as to what reasons might justify advocacy in humanitarian interventions in the case of politically motivated sexual violence. From a method described as an interdisciplinary and critical essay of legal theory, our argument and evidence will be structured to justify the hypothesis that silence in the face of non-respect for human dignity and the rights of victims is contrary to the universal values and spirit of humanity that are the raison d'être of humanitarian actions, that it also reinforces the state of lawlessness and impunity of perpetrators, but at the same time it accentuates the stigmatization of victims. In fact, the silence of humanitarian organizations that witness violations of fundamental rights perpetuates the culture of silence that usually accompanies acts of sexual violence and does not help to restore peace or prevent it from happening again in the future. The collection of data to support this hypothesis is based on a documentary research that is critically analyzed, reflexive and interdisciplinary. The oscillating nature of the essay, across disciplines, made it clear that morally, complicit silence is contrary to the spirit of humanitarianism. Advocacy is an interpretation of the principle of humanity that is the essence of humanitarian assistance. The care of victims by humanitarian organizations cannot therefore be limited to emergency humanitarian medicine. At the same time, the obligation of reserve and confidentiality is also contrary to the "first do not harm" principle. Caring for and supporting victims requires that humanitarian action be extended to the protection of human life in a holistic sense and also to the defense of victims' rights. From a legal perspective, the analysis of humanitarian paradigms demonstrates that the legal mechanisms put in place to protect people in times of conflict are largely dependent on humanitarian organizations and their roles as "gatekeepers" of international law. Advocacy has become a legal obligation of humanitarian organizations as a preventive measure against future violations of the rule of law, but also as a repressive measure against perpetrators.

Full textOur study focuses on the work achieved by international civil servants at the Office of the Special Representative of the Secretary-General on Sexual Violence in Conflict (SRSG-SVC), regarding the situation in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) through the prism of the Weberian bureaucracy. Based on six semi-directive interviews and the analysis of United Nations public sources, this study aims to providing perspectives on the views of the Office’s officials in relation to their missions and the means at their disposal to carry them out. This academic work also focuses on the scope of the work of the RSSG-VSC Office in the DRC, from the point of view of these international officials based in headquarters. So far, no qualitative studies had been conducted on the topic of the work of these civil servants. In addition to that, the Secretary-General’s annual reports drafted by this Office do not provide an understanding of the full scope of the work done in the DRC. Thus, this research project seeks to fill this gap. The analysis of the data collected shows that the creation of the mandate would have been premeditated: indeed, despite several Security Council resolutions and call for the end to conflict-related sexual violence, these crimes continue to be perpetrated. Thus, the mandate of the Special Representative of the Secretary-General for Children and Armed Conflict would have enabled the creation of the mandate of the SRSG-SVC, through advocacy work combined with multiple calls from the international community. The mandate’s goals which are ending conflict-related sexual violence around the world by helping to free victims’ voices, ensuring their reintegration into communities, filling gaps and strengthening knowledge about these crimes are shared by all respondents. In addition, the vision of their work within the Office is unanimously shared. However, respondents’ views differ when addressing the scope of the Office’s actions. The mandate still faces many challenges to end rape in war.
