This edited volume provides a broad perspective on the International Criminal Court's development over time and explores some of its topical issues, achievements, challenges and critiques. The anthology combines reflections from scholars and practitioners and includes voices from inside and outside the Court, featuring multiple readings of its activities, practice and developments. In line with the volume's title, the authors portray the establishment and development of the Court (hence the theme 'past'), critically engage with its successes and challenges ('present'), and draw conclusions on its achievements and way forward ('future'). The book examines five key topics: prosecutorial policy and strategy, jurisdiction and admissibility, victims and witnesses, defence issues, and legitimacy and independence. It includes a number of papers and speeches given at the Nuremberg Forum 2018. The book includes chapters by Benjamin B. Ferencz, Leila Nadya Sadat, Christopher R.F. Hale, Katarína Smigová, Fannie Lafontaine and Claire Magnoux, André C.U. Nwadikwa-Jonathan and Nicholas E. Ortiz, Fergal Gaynor, Andrea Marrone, Anderson Javiel Dirocie De León, Adedeji Adekunle, Ellie Smith, Christoph Safferling and Gurgen Petrossian, Juan Pablo Pérez-León-Acevedo, Hilde Farthofer, Benjamin Gumpert and Yulia Nuzban, Philippe Currat and Brice van Erps, Cara Cunningham Warren, Nicolai von Maltitz and Thomas Körner, Shannon Fyfe, Barbara Lochbihler, Bakhtiyar Tuzmukhamedov, Heiko Maas, Fatou Bensouda and Bertram Schmitt, in that order; and by the editors themselves. The book contains forewords by Piotr Hofmański (President, ICC) and Mama Koité Doumbia (Chair, Board of Trust Fund for Victims, ICC).

This 2003 collection of essays is based on five lectures organized jointly by Matrix Chambers of human rights lawyers and the Wiener Library between April and June 2002. Presented by leading experts in the field, this fascinating collection of papers examines the evolution of international criminal justice from its post World War II origins at Nuremberg through to the concrete proliferation of courts and tribunals with international criminal law jurisdictions based at The Hague today. Original and provocative, the lectures provide various stimulating perspectives on the subject of international criminal law. Topics include its corporate and historical dimension as well as a discussion of the International Criminal Court Statute and the role of the national courts. The volume offers a challenging insight into the future of international criminal legal system. This is an intelligent and thought-provoking book, accessible to anyone interested in international criminal law, from specialists to non-specialists alike.

This book presents the argument that solution-driven policy and treaty changes, if faithfully implemented, will rekindle the relevance of the International Criminal Court (ICC) in combatting and prosecuting atrocity crimes. This work examines how the International Criminal Court could be re-envisioned to perform optimally, and why such reform is urgent. It also discusses the position of the USA towards the court and explores why it has been unable to transition from marginal engagement to full spectrum support by signing and ratifying the Rome Treaty 1998. The conceptual frameworks deployed range from how the US construes its ‘national interest’ to geo-political balancing and the present rudderless state of the rules order, in addition to the personal predilections of US Presidents and the Court’s dysfunctional state. The objective is to show that if the ICC does not engender reforms internally, it will not survive the fissiparous tendencies innate in the presently fractured rules order. The work argues that only foundational reforms around treaty amendments along with institutional realignment of roles and responsibilities of the Court’s principal officers will yet rescue it. The book will be of interest to researchers, academics and policy-makers working in the areas of International Criminal Law and International Relations.

Marking 150 years since Confederation provides an opportunity for Canadian international law practitioners and scholars to reflect on Canada’s rich history in international law and governance, where we find ourselves today in the community of nations, and how we might help shape a future in which Canada’s rules-based and progressive approach to international law gains ascendancy. This collection of essays, each written in the official language chosen by the authors, provides a thoughtful perspective on Canada’s past and present in international law, surveys the challenges that lie before us, and offers renewed focus for Canada’s pursuit of global justice and the rule of law. Part I explores the history and practice of international law, including sources of international law, Indigenous treaties, international treaty diplomacy, domestic reception of international law, and Parliament’s role in international law. Part II explores Canada’s role in international law, governance and innovation in the broad fields of economic, environmental, and intellectual property law. Part III explores Canadian perspectives on developments in international human rights and humanitarian law, including judicial implementation of these obligations, international labour law, business and human rights, international criminal law, war crimes, child soldiers, and gender. Reflections on Canada’s Past, Present and Future in International Law/Réflexions sur le passé, le présent et l’avenir du Canada en droit international demonstrates the pivotal role that Canada has played in the development of international law and signals the essential contributions the country is poised to make in the future.

American reluctance to join the International Criminal Court illuminates important trends in international security and a central dilemma facing U.S. Foreign policy in the 21st century. The ICC will prosecute individuals who commit egregious international human rights violations such as genocide. The Court is a logical culmination of the global trends toward expanding human rights and creating international institutions. The U.S., which fostered these trends because they served American national interests, initially championed the creation of an ICC. The Court fundamentally represents the triumph of American values in the international arena. Yet the United States now opposes the ICC for fear of constraints upon America's ability to use force to protect its national interests. The principal national security and constitutional objections to the Court, which the volume explores in detail, inflate the potential risks inherent in joining the ICC. More fundamentally, they reflect a belief in American exceptionalism that is unsustainable in today's world. Court opponents also underestimate the growing salience of international norms and institutions in addressing emerging threats to U.S. national interests. The misguided assessments that buttress opposition to the ICC threaten to undermine American leadership and security in the 21st century more gravely than could any international institution.

This book offers a comprehensive analysis of the International Criminal Court (ICC) and its core legal texts from a children's rights perspective. It examines the ICC provisions and its case law, evaluating whether these meet international children's rights standards, particularly with regards to the protection of child victims and witnesses, their participation as victims in ICC proceedings, and their role as beneficiaries in reparations. The book proposes recommendations that could be adopted in order to guarantee children's rights in ICC proceedings. The book will be useful tool for practitioners as well as for academics, both in the area of international criminal law as well as children's rights. *** It is with research such as the one carried out by Dr. Chamberlain that the future jurisprudence of the International Criminal Court will progress and advance the application and interpretation of the Rome Statute with a human rights perspective. -- from the Foreword by Elizabeth Odio Benito, Former Judge International Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia and the International Criminal Court Subject: International Law, Criminal Law, Human Rights Law, Children's Law]
