dc.description.abstract | The sustainability of peaceful international relations is founded on the efficacy of international
dispute resolution mechanisms. There is a myriad of actions which facilitate the resolution of
conflict among states including inter alia political solutions through diplomacy, economic leverage
through sanctions or reparations, or legal recourse in the form of judicial proceedings. Over the
years, these solutions have proven complementary and not mutually exclusive of one another.
This thesis, though, pays critical attention to the legal mechanisms of dispute resolution. It makes
inquiries into the utility of jurisdictional consent-requirement of the International Court of Justice
(ICJ) and the protection of principles of state sovereignty, sovereign equality and international
justice.
