Noncompliance with International Court of Justice Decisions: What it Means and How it Occurs?
Abstract
As the highest judicial instrument of the United Nations, the International Court of Justice provides an essential venue for the resolution of disputes between nations. However, the impact of ICJ rulings on encouraging adherence to international law is still being debated. In this study, the author offers a thorough evaluation of the court ability to enforce its rulings. This research analyzes the strengths and limits of the International Court of Justice's enforcement procedures by looking at case studies and empirical data to determine what variables impact state compliance with ICJ judgments. The author assesses the efficacy of advisory opinions, provisional measures, and final judgments issued by the International Court of Justice by conducting a critical review of the court's jurisprudence. This paper also evaluates the efforts of other stakeholders, such as the United Nations Security Council and individual governments, to ensure that the world court rulings are implemented as intended. The article places its study amid larger discussions regarding the function of international law in encouraging conformity and cooperation among nations, in addition to its emphasis on the International Court of Justice. The examination of "Enforcing International Law" plays a vital role in perpetuating discussions regarding the advantages and disadvantages of the international legal framework. It offers a comprehensive and well-supported evaluation of the effectiveness of the ICJ's rulings.
