Africa has been at the forefront of contemporary global efforts
towards ensuring greater accountability for international crimes.
But the continent's early embrace of international criminal justice
seems to be taking a new turn with the recent resistance from some
African states claiming that the emerging system of international
criminal law represents a new form of imperialism masquerading as
international rule of law. This book analyses the relationship and
tensions between the International Criminal Court (ICC) and Africa.
It traces the origins of the confrontation between African
governments, both acting individually and within the framework of
the African Union, and the permanent Hague-based ICC. Leading
commentators offer valuable insights on the core legal and
political issues that have confused the relationship between the
two sides and expose the uneasy interaction between international
law and international politics. They offer suggestions on how best
to continue the fight against impunity, using national, ICC, and
regional justice mechanisms, while taking into principled account
the views and interests of African States.
