The history and development of domestic and international criminal jurisdictions, the necessity of establishing international criminal courts, and the concept of complementary jurisdiction are analyzed in this context. By analyzing the challenges arising from the exercise of these jurisdictions, especially in the area of international crimes such as war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide, the study concludes that the interaction between domestic courts and the ICC, along with the acceptance of its complementary principles, plays a fundamental role in achieving international justice. While examining various perspectives on granting universal jurisdiction to the Court and related practical challenges, the study offers solutions to improve cooperation between domestic judicial systems and international institutions. Ultimately, this study concludes that the ICC, by employing complementary jurisdiction, helps effectively combat impunity for serious international crimes while preserving the judicial independence of states.</p> https://journalisslp.com/index.php/isslp/article/download/348/615
