This book aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of how the International Criminal Court can be better equipped to handle instances of non-cooperation with its requests by States, specifically State Parties to the Rome Statute that have a concrete obligation to cooperate with the Court. The book suggests that non-cooperation is not handled in an effective manner at any stage of non-cooperation proceedings. This highlights the need for there to be more effective responses and remedies for handling the failure to cooperate, from the initial decision on non-cooperation by the ICC Pre-Trial Chamber's to the follow-up mechanisms developed by the institutional bodies tasked with addressing non-cooperation.
Existing literature on non-cooperation appears to strictly look to the black letter of the Rome Statute to address and remedy the gaps in the Court's handling of non-cooperation matters. This book, however, intends to conduct a broad study, and will therefore look beyond the Rome Statute to search for effective remedies for responding to instances of non-cooperation, through relevant international peace and security. Specific focus will be placed on the Responsibility to Protect and the ILC's Articles on the Responsibility of States for Internationally Wrongful Acts. Responses to non-cooperation will also be analysed through its potential relationship with peremptory norms of general international law (jus cogens).
This volume in the ICJ Series is especially relevant considering recent developments in international criminal law, including the continued inability of the ICC to effectively address non-cooperation in high-profile cases. Specifically tailored for legal academics, practitioners, and policymakers, this book seeks to bridge theoretical analyses with practical solutions, making it an important tool for those invested in the future of international criminal justice.

商品描述(中文翻譯)
這本書旨在提供一個全面的分析,探討國際刑事法院如何能更好地應對各國,特別是《羅馬規約》締約國對其請求的非合作情況。書中指出,非合作在任何非合作程序的階段都未能得到有效處理。這突顯了需要有更有效的回應和補救措施來處理未能合作的情況,從國際刑事法院預審庭對非合作的初步決定,到負責處理非合作的機構所制定的後續機制。
現有的非合作文獻似乎僅僅依賴《羅馬規約》的明文來解決和補救法院在處理非合作事宜上的不足。然而,本書打算進行廣泛的研究,因此將超越《羅馬規約》,尋找有效的補救措施來應對非合作的情況,並通過相關的國際和平與安全進行探討。特別關注的將是保護責任(Responsibility to Protect)以及國際法委員會(ILC)關於國家對國際不法行為責任的條款。對非合作的回應也將通過其與一般國際法的強制性規範(jus cogens)之間的潛在關係進行分析。
考慮到國際刑法的最新發展,包括國際刑事法院在高調案件中持續無法有效處理非合作的情況,本書在國際法院系列中尤其相關。本書專為法律學者、實務工作者和政策制定者量身定制,旨在將理論分析與實際解決方案相結合,成為那些關心國際刑事司法未來的重要工具。
