When the relevance or, practice of international tribunals is impugned their tendency often is to resort to ‘ vivere -existential reflexes’. This habit can incubate conflict between the particular tribunal and the requirements of General Principles of Law recognized by civilized nations. This risks disunity between international law, supranational law and domestic law. This article examines the International Criminal Court’s ( ICC ) application and interpretation of Article 87 of the Rome Statute (1998) under the light of nemo judex in parte sua – a general principle of law recognized by civilized nations. The article recommends that an observatory for monitoring International Tribunals’ compliance with general principles of law recognized by civilized nations should be established and a database on non-compliance should be developed and maintained. This should check practice of international tribunals for consistency with general principles of law recognized by civilized nations in a manner that promotes the integrity of international law.

在对国际刑事法院的批判中走向 nemo judex？

当国际法庭的相关性或实践受到质疑时，他们的倾向往往是诉诸“生活的存在性反射”。这种习惯会在特定法庭与文明国家承认的一般法律原则的要求之间滋生冲突。这可能会导致国际法、超国家法和国内法之间的不统一。本文根据 nemo judex in parte sua（文明国家承认的一般法律原则）审查了国际刑事法院 (ICC) 对《罗马规约》（1998 年）第 87 条的适用和解释。文章建议设立一个监测国际法庭遵守文明国家承认的一般法律原则的观察站，并建立和维护不遵守情况的数据库。这应该以促进国际法完整性的方式检查国际法庭的实践是否与文明国家承认的一般法律原则一致。
