Burma, a beautiful country of peaceful people in South East Asia, has been ruled by military and authoritarian regimes since more than half a century ago. Now there are suggestions that the International Criminal Court should indict Burma's brutal military rulers for the crimes against humanity they have been committing on their own people since so many decades ago. But it is easier said than done_ Burma is not a signatory of Rome statute of ICC, and Burma's dictators may just ignore any indictment by the ICC. And, the ICC has its own problems_ some big democracies like the USA and India are refusing to join the ICC club. This book tries to look at the debates and controversies surrounding the ICC and tries to argue why the ICC is a welcoming development in international law. And, although this book tries to be applicable on Burma scenario, it actually approaches to ICC debates from a very general and universal point of view.
