Abstract

International law has evolved as a framework for regulating inter-state relations and ensuring global justice, yet its effectiveness is often questioned in the context of human rights violations, armed conflicts, and economic inequalities. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of international law in upholding global justice through key case studies such as rulings by the International Court of Justice (ICJ), mechanisms of the International Criminal Court (ICC), and the implementation of the Geneva Conventions. The research method employed is qualitative analysis with a case study approach and literature review, involving data from official reports, court rulings, and academic analyses.The results indicate that international law has a positive impact in some cases, such as the prosecution of war crimes in Rwanda and Yugoslavia, but faces challenges such as state sovereignty, lack of enforcement mechanisms, and political influences. The discussion reveals that the effectiveness of international law depends on state commitments, international community support, and institutional reforms. The conclusion states that although international law is not yet fully effective, its potential to uphold global justice can be enhanced through multilateral cooperation and legal innovations.
