Controversies on the Legal Nature of ExtraditionAbstract:The legal nature of the extradition was a permanent object of discussion in the legal literature. Thus, many authors have emphasized the different legal nature of extradition, based on its role and purpose in the act of international cooperation in criminal matters. According to Professor Ion Tanoviceanu, the extradition is an institution of international law as it is the subject of numerous international treaties and conventions. In a recent study, the author Florin Razvan Radu noted that “extradition belongs to the field of public international law, namely of international criminal law”. According to other authors, the extradition has a mixed legal nature being, at the same time, an act of sovereignty and a jurisdictional one. Extradition appears as an act of sovereignty of the state, which may accept or refuse to surrender an offender in its territory
