As various types of international crimes developed rapidly, to deal with issues of international crimes is therefore crucial in contemporary international society. However the lock of a robust jurisprudent theory in the international crime level has led to numerous controversial issues which are debated in academics and also in practice, such as the definition of international crimes, jurisdiction and its implementation, obligation and from which the punish system is based on etc.
An outstanding achievement followed the recent efforts of the international society against the international crimes is that of setting up the International Criminal Court (here after, ICC).
