The Rise of the International Criminal Court
Start:  Monday, November 3, 2003  9:00 AM
End:  Monday, November 3, 2003  12:30 PM
Location:  Wohlstetter Conference Center, Twelfth Floor, AEI
1150 Seventeenth Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20036
Directions to AEI

The International Criminal Court remains one of the most pressing international obstacles to the American foreign policy agenda. While the United States has withdrawn its signature of the treaty, the ICC has constituted itself, appointing initial judges and a prosecutor. Difficult questions concerning authority over American officials, servicemen, and civilians participating in the global war against terrorism, the continuing operations in Afghanistan, and the reconstruction of Iraq have yet to be resolved.

Please join AEI as leading government officials from the United States and abroad, legal academics, and foreign policy experts discuss recent ICC developments and whether they pose a challenge to American foreign policy.
