The International Criminal Court remains a sensitive issue in
U.S. foreign policy circles. It was agreed to at the tail end of
the Clinton administration, but with serious reservations. In 2002
the Bush administration ceremoniously reversed course and
"unsigned" the Rome Statute that had established the Court. But
recent developments in Washington and elsewhere indicate that the
United States may be moving toward de facto acceptance of the Court
and active cooperation in its mission. In "Means to an End," Lee
Feinstein and Tod Lindberg reassess the relationship of the United
States and the ICC, as well as American policy toward international
justice more broadly.
Praise for the hardcover edition of "Means to an End " "Books of
this sort are all too rare. Two experienced policy intellectuals,
one liberal, one conservative, have come together to find common
ground on a controversial foreign policy issue.... The book is
short, but it goes a long way toward clearing the ideological air."
-- "Foreign Affairs " "A well-researched and timely contribution to
the debate over America's proper relationship to the International
Criminal Court. Rigorous in its arguments and humane in its
conclusions, the volume is an indispensable guide for scholars and
policymakers alike." --Madeleine K. Albright, former U.S. Secretary
of State
"Two of our nation's leading authorities on preventing
atrocities have joined to make a convincing argument that closer
cooperation with the International Criminal Court will help promote
human rights and the values on which America was founded."
--Angelina Jolie, co-chair, Jolie-Pitt Foundation
