The Relationship between the International Criminal Court and National Jurisdictions: The Principle of Complementary
This book provides an in-depth analysis of the principle of complementarity, which governs the relationship between the International Criminal Court (ICC) and national jurisdictions. It examines how the ICC functions as a court of last resort, intervening only when states are unwilling or unable to prosecute serious international crimes such as genocide, crimes against humanity, and war crimes. The text explores legal, political, and practical challenges in implementing complementarity, including issues of sovereignty, capacity-building, and the balance between international and domestic justice. By addressing both theoretical foundations and case-based applications, the book contributes to understanding how complementarity shapes accountability and the effectiveness of international criminal law.
