Abstract

This thesis deals with the relationship between the International Criminal Court (ICC) and the United Nations Security Council (UNSC). Its first part after the introduction analyzes this relationship from the point of view of the Rome Statute of the ICC (Rome Statute). In this context those stipulations are examined which play a role for the relationship between the ICC and the UNSC, especially Art. 5 (2) (crime of aggression), Art. 13 lit. b) (so-called referral), Art. 16 (so-called deferral) and Art. 87 (cooperation) Rome Statute. After briefly examining the Relationship Agreement between the ICC and the United Nations (Relationship Agreement) those measures are presented and scrutinized as regards their compatibility with the Rome Statute that have shaped the relationship between ICC and UNSC in the past, especially UNSC resolutions 1422 (2002), 1487 (2003), 1497 (2003) and 1593 (2005).
