The International Criminal Court : history and role / revised by Scott McTaggart. : YM32-10/2002-11-2022E-PDF

"In 1998, a group of countries signed a treaty with the goal of ending impunity for the world's most serious crimes by establishing a permanent international criminal tribunal, the International Criminal Court (ICC or the Court). The Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court (Rome Statute) marked a milestone in the development of international criminal law as states recognized the need to reach beyond the ad hoc solutions that preceded the ICC and build a court with broad jurisdiction to investigate, try and punish perpetrators of atrocities around the world. Officially created in 2002, the ICC has now become an established, if controversial, feature of the international landscape. …This paper provides an overview of the historical development of international criminal law and a summary of the Rome Statute. It discusses the role and functioning of the ICC before proceeding to a review of the Court's record to date and a discussion of the criticisms the ICC faces today"--Introduction, page i (that is, page 1).
