Abstract
La investigación científica ha demostrado que el daño ambiental no respeta fronteras y las predicciones futuras para la salud de los ecosistemas y los seres humanos no son optimistas. En la actualidad, no existen medidas en el sistema de justicia penal internacional dedicadas a proteger el medio ambiente de los efectos nocivos del ecocidio. Sin embargo, la instauración de una ley de Ecocidio ayudaría a paliar el sufrimiento de las poblaciones nativas que desencadena flujos migratorios forzados en aquéllos territorios afectados por daños ambientales, así como al análisis de arquetipos victimológicos dispares. Este trabajo explora dichas cuestiones y contribuye a la promoción de la propuesta de enmienda del Estatuto de Roma de la Corte Penal Internacional. La aportación teórico-científica de la Green Criminology es esencial para la consecución de este propósito, debido al aporte crítico de la disciplina tanto en la interpretación del crimen ambiental como en el examen de las consecuencias del comportamiento humano para el medio ambiente.
Scientific research has proven that environmental damage does not respect borders and future predictions for the health of ecosystems and humans are not optimistic. However, at present environmental law lacks real substantive and systematic presence at an international level. There is currently no international criminal justice system measure devoted to protecting the environment from harmful effects of ecocide or to extending to the suffering of native populations in territories affected by environmental damage resulting in forced migration flows, in addition to dissimilar victimological archetypes. This paper will address these issues and contribute to the creation of a sufficient basis on which to promote the proposed amendment of the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court. To this end, the theoretical and scientific contribution of Green Criminology is essential due to this sub-field of study takes a critical interpretation in analysing disparate environmental crimes and the consequences of human behaviour for the environment.
