Politics of precedent in international law: a social network application / Pelc, Krzysztof J   Journal Article
Pelc, Krzysztof J Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2014.
Summary/Abstract The concept of precedent is fundamental to domestic courts, especially in Anglo-American common law systems, where judges are bound to the court's past decisions. By contrast, precedent has no formal authority in international law. Legal scholars point to Article 59 of the International Court of Justice (ICJ) Statute in this respect, according to which international legal rulings are binding only on the parties in the dispute at hand, and have no bearing on matters outside of the case.

Two courts two roads: domestic rule of law and legitimacy of international courts / Powell, Emilia Justyna   Journal Article
Powell, Emilia Justyna Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2013.
Summary/Abstract The International Court of Justice (ICJ) and the International Criminal Court (ICC) constitute two prominent international courts. However, there exists considerable variation in states' support for these two institutions. The Rome Statute, which recognizes the jurisdiction of the ICC has been ratified by over half the states in the world; only a third of states accept the compulsory jurisdiction of the ICJ. How are we to understand this variation in state support for these two courts? I argue that there is an inherent link between the quality of a state's domestic legal system (rule of law) and perceived legitimacy of an international court. Empirical analyses of states' support for the ICJ and the ICC show that rule-of-law states lend support to the ICC, a court perceived by the international community as legitimate. Alleged bias of the ICJ has, on the other hand, substantially weakened support for this court among rule-of-law states.
