Tóm tắt:The International Criminal Court (ICC) soars with the loftiest of ideals as it grapples with the basest of human acts. This first and only permanent international criminal court intends to counter impunity by prosecuting perpetrators of genocide, crimes against humanity, and war crimes. It seeks to deter depredations against citizens in violent conflicts and to contribute to justice, peace, political transition, and reconstruction. Ideally, domestic societies use legitimate political processes to devise and promulgate their laws. Then the laws are fairly implemented by legal systems that remove the politics from justice. This ideal is often compromised by extralegal influences, by biased legal structures, and by maladministration; nonetheless, the ideal is a widely accepted model of an objective, dispassionate, truth-based mechanism for upholding society’s rules.
