Abstract

The international criminal justice (ICJ) system is a combination of international institutions such as the international criminal court (ICC), ad hoc and mixed-model tribunals, international investigating bodies, and national criminal justice systems. International criminal law (ICL) and ICJ have recently become part of the values, policies, and practices of the international legal system. The pursuit of ICJ has become part of the international legal system through an evolutionary process, which began with the emergence, convergence, and coalescence of certain values in different civilizations, which, along with the interests of states, has produced a synthesis of goals and policies between national criminal justice systems and the international legal system. The ICJ system consists of international and national criminal justice institutions which collectively undertake enforcing international criminal law norms. ICJ seeks to enhance accountability and reduce impunity for international crimes, particularly jus cogens international crimes.Keywords:international criminal court (ICC); international criminal justice (ICJ); international criminal law (ICL); jus cogens international crimes.; national criminal justice systems
