International Criminal Justice in Africa and Competing Indignation Regimes
from Part III - Politics
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 05 May 2022
Chapter 7 combines the key insights from the preceding chapters in an investigation of the prevailing debate on the ICC in Africa. By analysing ethnographic encounters in The Hague, northern Uganda, and other places where criticisms and defences of the ICC’s Africa policies emerge, the chapter shows that the creation of atmospheres and sentiments is key to the political debate on the rule-of-law movement in Africa. Both critics and proponents of the ICC depend on these atmospheres and sentiments to make their points. Far from being merely another register of political discourse among others, the deployment of affect and emotion is a key component of any normative statement about justice. (~9,300 words)
