Prof Sluiter's proposal takes into account the challenges of cooperation by contracting States, leaving out non-contracting states. The Al Bashir cases have shown that non-contracting states to the Statute are also on... (more)

- lgiles: The Future of Self-Referrals to the ICC: A Path to Greater Legitimacy with State Parties and the International Community As a consequence of complementarity the number of cases that reach the court should not be a measure of its efficiency.

To create an independent middle that can negotiate for victims, I believe those resource as the national security state parties are aware requires the national security counsel for state parties to partake in that process, whether it be non icbc state members or non United Nations state members,
I also believe having the international rights of the child(1990) be a specific tool in recognizing the differences between victims, and those victims when within icbc jurisdiction to be treated as different as they are- duel prosecution and examinations concurrently in the trial, or peace negotiation.
