Summary/Abstract: International criminal law, as a system of legal provisions contained in the regulations of the international community, but also in the national (internal) criminal legislation of individual countries, imposes criminal responsibility and punishment for the growing number of international crimes, among which stands out the crime of aggression. It is an act in violation of laws and customs of war (international humanitarian law) and violates the peace among nations and security of mankind. Primary jurisdiction over perpetrators of this criminal offense in certain cases lies with the international court (transnational) body. This paper analyses the concept and the basic characteristics of the crime of aggression, from both the theoretical and the practical aspect of the international and national criminal law of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia and Croatia.
