About the Book

The recently established International Criminal Court (ICC) has been touted as a major breakthrough in the potential control of genocide, terrorism, and war crimes. This book explores the historical origins of the court and provides and examination of the basic structure and functioning of the court. Rothe and Mullins offer a detailed critique of procedural, conceptual, and practical elements of the ICC through the lens of critical criminological theory and research and identify several problems with the design and proposed implementation of the ICC. The theoretical analysis employed shows how the Court is but a small step forward in the control of crimes by states and state leaders due to its limited scope., myopic conception of crime, jurisdictional scope, and minimal compulsory power. Certain to appeal to criminology and international studies scholars, this volume strives to outline suggestions for strengthening the court.

Review :
If criminology is to have any relevance in the era of globalization, it must more directly address the vitally important issues of state crime and international social control. Dawn Rothe and Chris Mullins have made an outstanding contribution to this project with their incisive and critical analysis of the International Criminal Court....--Ron Kramer It is a very readable and well-written introduction to the question of what international criiminal justice is after all about....The authors also provide a refreshing look into the American criminological community's soul when it comes to the attitude ofthe current US administration and the population in general.... The chapters, ideas, and information presented in them appear to logically flow from one idea to the next. The manuscript is an excellent review of the problems and opportunities presented by the International Criminal Court. The manuscript is well written, clear, and appropriately documented. The historical sections are well crafted. Instructors in the fields of international law, international organizations, and human rights will find this book particularly useful....--Jeffrey Ian Ross
