Abstract

The International Court of Justice (ICJ), as the principal judicial organ of the United Nations, has long been of significant relevance in the resolution of international disputes and the maintenance of world peace. Nonetheless, the application of the ICJ is not promising since its establishment, and there is considerable controversy concerning several decisions and advisory opinions made by the Court. Nevertheless, the reform of the ICJ is a process aimed at renovating or modifying its substantive and procedural rules to promote efficiency and achieve justice. This paper identifies external challenges and the internal demand for renovation as the ICJ’s incentives in addressing future reforms. By invoking case studies and strategic research, this article provides reform propositions concerning expanding the scope of litigation jurisdiction and limitations on the veto power.
