The Rome Statute of the ICC at Its Twentieth Anniversary: Achievements and Perspectives is an edited book comprising 13 chapters written by participants to a conference dedicated to discussing the development, achievements and possible future evolution of the Rome Statute and international criminal law. The authors are 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. Although quite new (only 20 years have passed since the adoption of its basic document - the Rome Statute), it has already developed interesting case-law and continues to elaborate on both substantive and procedural international criminal law.
