Best Answer

Darfur is an example of the application of international criminal law. The International Criminal Court in the Hague (more precisely the prosecutor to the court) has indicted Al-Bashir and several others on numerous counts of crimes against humanity, warcrimes, and genocide. The case is an example of the application of international law. Although Darfur is not party to the Rome Statute creating the ICC, it was granted jurisdiction by the UN. The ICC thus offers an enforcement mechanism to punish especially severe crimes deemed to be directed 'against humanity'. The fact that most of those indicted have not been apprehended also shows the limits set to the enforceability of international law, which is very much dependent on sufficient international political backing.
