This is the inside story of the International Criminal Court, perhaps the most innovative international institution, from the unique perspective of its first Chief Prosecutor, Luis Moreno Ocampo.

  • Provides a view of the International Criminal Court (ICC) from the perspective of its founding Chief Prosecutor
  • Argues that the War on Terror expanded support for international terrorism, rather than deterred it
  • Examines the legal systems managing international violence at the beginning of the 21st Century and their interactions
  • Demonstrates that the design of the ICC and the lack of harmonization among legal systems hampers the ability to produce justice
  • Explores the limits and possibilities of protecting victims at an international level
  • Describes an unprecedented legal practice, jus ad curiam, that is previously unexplored in legal and IR scholarship
  • Crosses academic disciplines and geographic areas to cover the range of ICC practice
