Rome Statute of the ICC at Its Twentieth Anniversary

The Rome Statute of the ICC at its Twentieth Anniversary (Achievements and Perspectives) is an edited book comprising of 13 chapters written by contributors to a conference dedicated to discuss the development, achievements and possible future evolution of the Rome Statute and international criminal law. The authors include academics from various legal systems, practitioners from the ICC and the Special Tribunal for Lebanon, attorneys and other law experts. The International Criminal Court is the first universal international criminal tribunal. Though quite new, as the Rome Statute was adopted 20 years ago (1998) and only 16 years have passed since its entry into force, it has already developed interesting case-law and continues to elaborate on both substantive and procedural international criminal law. Contributors are Ivana Hrdlickova, Claus Kre, Tamas Lattmann, Jan Lhotsky, Milan Lipovsky, Iryna Marchuk, Josef Mrazek, Anna Richterova, Simon De Smet, Ondrej Svacek, Pavel Sturma, Katerina Uhlirova, Kristyna Urbanova, Aloka Wanigasuriya.
