Abstract

International law is often perceived as an idealistic framework separate from the harsh realities of politics. The case of South Africa versus Israel at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) from late 2023 to early 2024 highlights the relevance of international legal principles amid armed conflict. This study analyzes the legal and political implications of the judicial process, focusing on the application of the 1948 Genocide Convention, the role of the International Court, and the limitations of global law enforcement. The analysis shows that although the ICJ lacks the military power to enforce its rulings, the international legal process exerts significant moral, political, and diplomatic pressure. The case also reinforces global accountability and underscores the importance of international humanitarian law principles in the context of complex armed conflicts.

Abstract

Legal issues at the international level are more complex and complicated compared to conflicts within a specific territorial jurisdiction. This is because international legal matters may involve multiple countries simultaneously and require significant efforts for resolution. The case discussed in this paper concerns the South China Sea dispute, brought by the Philippines as one of the countries claiming rights over the South China Sea. The Philippines submitted the dispute with China to the International Arbitration forum. The Philippines argued that China’s actions in constructing artificial islands have caused severe damage to coral reef environments. Further analysis of this case will be discussed in more detail in the sections below.
