This book suggests an analysis in depth of ICC's historical background as well as of what motivates each African State to accept, reject or adopt a midway position towards the Rome Statute. Simultaneously, it is proposed a detailed reflection to each situation currently under investigation by the ICC and it draws a parallel between the position of African States to the jurisdiction of the ICC, other elements usually associated to the West and how it reflects in the attempts to reform the Security Council of the United Nations.
