Abstract
Amsterdam Law Forum (ALF) is the student-run 'International Law Journal' of VU University. Every year ALF publishes a winter, spring, and summer issue. The journal consists of three sections; scientific articles, opinion articles, and commentaries. As of this year, ALF also creates a section for inaugural speeches. In addition, ALF hosts a conference in spring with a relevant legal theme, where renowned speakers are invited to share their perspectives. Overall, ALF is a topical journal that provides a platform for established scholars and young academics to share knowledge, opinions and experiences and to make contributions to the international law discourse. Staff, PhD students and master students who have written a very good thesis are invited to submit an article to ALF. What is learned in the cradle is carried to the tomb: we are looking forward to sharing your articles on our website!

Summary
The first edition of volume four of Amsterdam Law Forum is a reflection of the many different issues international law touches. On that day an international treaty came into force which created a permanent international criminal court that could potentially hear any case of mass atrocity anywhere in the world. International criminal tribunals had been created before, their jurisdiction was always limited to certain specific conflicts. As was the case after the Second World War, some tribunals were even limited to prosecuting just one party to a conflict.
