Universality Principle

The Universality Principle is a legal doctrine within international criminal law that permits states to claim jurisdiction over certain serious crimes, such as piracy, genocide, and war crimes, regardless of where they were committed or the nationality of the perpetrators or victims, on the basis that such crimes offend the global community as a whole.
