The Relationship between National Jurisdictions and the ICC represents a Major Challenge for the Edifice of International Criminal Justice as a Whole and despite the recent Emphasis on Positive Complementarity, this Relationship Remains Ambiguous
The International Criminal Court is said to be arguably the most influential international
organisations created since the United Nations. However, despite the fact that 120 nation
states signed the Rome Statute on July 17, 1998 to give birth to the International
Criminal Court, it is felt that the jurisdiction of this Court is far too restrictive and often
likely to be at odds with the national jurisdiction of nation states. This essay presents a discussion about the relationship between national
jurisdictions and the International Criminal Court presenting a challenge to
international criminal justice despite the emphasis on positive complementarity.
