Abstract

This article identifies how, and to what extent, harmful speech, such as, gender-based incitement and threats against women, are addressed in international criminal law and practice. It delves into the jurisprudence on direct and public incitement to genocide, genocide and persecution, a crime against humanity, to identify trends. Finding that the law overlooks the issue and that the practice only marginally refers to it, the article resorts to international human rights law as an interpretative aid and to fill the gaps. In this regard, inspired by feminist theories, it proposes interpretative methods that can be applied by judges to surface, fairly label and ultimately sanction harmful speech targeted at women. As such, this article contributes to the doctrinal discourse on what gendered crimes are, and what gender-sensitive judging in international courts should look like.

揭露针对妇女的有害言论--关于在国际刑法中进行对性别问题有敏感认识的事实调查和解释的建议
本文确定了国际刑法和实践如何以及在何种程度上处理有害言论,如基于性别的煽动和威胁妇女。文章深入探讨了有关直接和公开煽动灭绝种族罪、灭绝种族罪和迫害罪(一种危害人类罪)的判例,以确定发展趋势。文章发现,法律忽视了这一问题,而实践中也只是略微提及,因此将国际人权法作为解释辅助工具,以填补空白。在这方面,受女权主义理论的启发,文章提出了一些解释性方法,可供法官使用,以揭露、公平地标注并最终制裁针对妇女的有害言论。因此,本文有助于从理论上探讨什么是性别化犯罪,以及国际法院中对性别问题有敏感认识的判决应该是什么样的。
