The rome statute and domestic Vol.II

After the adoption of the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court legislators have to face serious challenges. This second volume further pursues the comparative constitutional law analysis, which the first volume began to explore, and moves on to the area of State cooperation with the ICC, which is legally intriguing and of pivotal practical importance. The collection comprises 20 national and 2 regional reports covering every continent. Two comparative syntheses conclude the volume.

“The information and its analysis contained in this book will prove invaluable to those who practice in the field of international criminal justice, including above all those State Party officials which are still in the process of drafting or finalizing their respective legislation. At the same time, the publication of the rich results of this comparative research on a rather unexplored area of law offers an inspiring reading for all international criminal law scholars. I welcome this volume and commend it to all those who take an interest in the emerging system of international criminal justice.”
