Scenarios about 'international criminal court'
The International Criminal Court is a permanent international tribunal established in 2002 to prosecute individuals for genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes, and crimes of aggression. Created through the Rome Statute treaty, the ICC represents a milestone in international law's development, functioning as a court of last resort when national courts are unwilling or unable to prosecute. In alternate history scenarios, the ICC's existence, jurisdiction, or effectiveness often reflects different trajectories of post-WWII international order and human rights development.
