The International Court of Justice serves as a global tribunal established by the United Nations Charter, with jurisdiction over disputes involving any country, regardless of UN membership. It adjudicates cases based on international law principles, conventions, and customs. The Court's decisions are initially published in advance-sheet format and later compiled in an annual bound volume with an index, making this collection essential for any serious study of international law.
