| Abstract: | Fifteen years after the coming into force of the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court, international criminal justice is thought to be in crisis. Despite the many positive developments, in terms of completing the institution-building process as well as emerging jurisprudence, the Court is also facing a number of challenges. Universality, complementarity, cooperation, as well as effectiveness and efficiency are all areas of concern. The lecture discusses the prospects as well as the challenges faced by the International Criminal Court at 15. |
