The authors examine the historical background and the main stages in the development of the concept of international crimes. Three conceptual models of international crimes are analyzed, which replaced each other during the past century. The article compares three models – Nuremberg, Hague and Roman. The conclusion is made about the gradual expansion of the most serious international crimes – core crimes. The important contribution of the UN International Law Commission to promoting the concept of responsibility for international crimes is noted.
