Association of the American Law Schools Panel on the International Criminal Court - Panel Discussion A panel on the International Criminal Court, sponsored by the Sections on International Law and Criminal Justice of the Association of American Law Schools, took place at New Orleans, Louisiana, on January 9, 1999. The year 1999 marks the centennial of the first Hague Peace Conference, which encouraged the development of international criminal law. An important development since then is that individual officials, as well as states collectively, can be held accountable for abuses.
This article explores the efficacy of the International Criminal Court (ICC) referral mechanisms, focusing on the State Party and Security Council referral methods. Under the current structure of the ICC and in the current political climate, Security Council referrals to the ICC have no more enforcement behind them than State Party referrals or investigations initiated by the ICC Prosecutor, even though the Security Council theoretically can back up its referrals with Chapter VII authority. This is the case because the Security Council has not chosen to exercise its Chapter VII powers outside of the referral itself. However, the ICC could choose to modify its structure and jurisdiction in the hope of gaining the support of the US. If the US reversed its position on the ICC, then the US ...

To initiate a war of aggression, therefore, is not only an international crime; it is the supreme international crime differing only from other war crimes in that it contains within itself the accumulated evil of the whole.1 I. INTRODUCTION The Rome Statute established the International Criminal Court (ICC) in 2002.2 The ICC is the culmination of decades of attempts to define aggression and set up an international court with jurisdiction to hold individuals responsible for what the state parties considered the most serious crime - the crime of aggression.3 The Rome Statute confers subject matter jurisdiction with respect to "the most serious crimes of international concern": genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes and the crime of aggression.4 Although the Rome Statute defined the...
Twelfth Survey of White Collar Crime Congress needs to incorporate international provisions into the federal white collar crime laws it drafts to provide the courts with clear guidance when prosecutors attempt to enforce the law beyond US borders. Federal criminal law is expanding within the US, and US criminal law is being increasingly applied to persons outside the US. Generic extraterritoriality clauses in statutes fail to provide courts and the world guidance on whether the particular statute can and will be enforced outside the US. Economic globalization dictates that white collar crime laws address these issues.

This article provides a critical evaluation of the role, character, and normative desirability of international judicial lawmaking by examining the history the Yugoslav and Rwandan war crimes tribunals. These tribunals have significantly altered the laws of war, and these changes have subsequently been codified in the treaty creating the International Criminal Court. This article argues that states often tacitly delegate lawmaking authority to international courts, and that they did so in the case of the tribunals. The article contends that temporary international courts can serve a critical, if underappreciated, role in the development of new areas of international law. This article also explores the consequences for states of vesting enforcement of the laws of war in international jud...
