The International Court of Justice is the principal forum for countries seeking to resolve legal disputes with one another. Failings of the International Court of Justice argues that ICJ decisions - although treated with great respect by international lawyers - are often wrong and do not merit the deference they receive. In this book, A. Mark Weisburd explains the legal basis for the Court's work, and explores the cases where legal errors are prevalent.
