The jurisprudence of the International Tribunals for the former Yugoslavia and Rwanda determined that, for the first time, the Statute of the International Criminal Court provided for the autonomous consideration of several international crimes of sexual nature. Nowadays, four international tribunals have already decided on the constituent elements of three of these crimes, in particular rape, sexual slavery and sexual violence. This paper is devoted to the study of this jurisprudence
