By means of empirical research and jurisprudential analysis, this book explores the implications that conducting a trial in more than one language can have for the right to fair trial. It reveals that the language debate is as old as international criminal justice, but due to misrepresentation of the status of language fair trial rights in international law, the debate has not yielded concrete reforms. Language is the core foundation for justice. It is the means through which the rights of the accused are secured and exercised. Linguistic complexities such as misunderstandings, translation errors and cultural distance among participants in international criminal trials affect courtroom communication, the presentation and the perception of the evidence, hence jeopardizing the foundations of a fair trial. The author concludes that language fair trial rights are priority rights situated in the minimum guarantees of fair criminal trial; the obligation of the court to ensure fair trial or accord the accused person a fair hearing also includes the duty to ensure they can understand and be understood. 000722988 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed October 14, 2013). 000722988 650_0 $$aCourt interpreting and translating. 000722988 650_0 $$aInternational criminal law. 000722988 852__ $$bebk 000722988 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-01451-7$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000722988 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:722988$$pGLOBAL_SET 000722988 980__ $$aEBOOK 000722988 980__ $$aBIB 000722988 982__ $$aEbook 000722988 983__ $$aOnline 000722988 994__ $$a92$$bISE
