The ICC has been accused of targeting Africa, and many African states do not seem willing to cooperate with the Court.

The authors of this volume all recognise the current problems and criticism. Yet they do not side with populist pessimists who, after just over a decade of ICC experiences, conclude that the Court and international criminal justice are doomed to fail. Rather, the contributors may be regarded as cautious optimists who believe there is a future for international criminal justice, including the ICC. Civil society is working with the ICC to equip itself for the challenging situation it finds itself in: having to continuously and coherently counter misinformation, including political attacks.
