Abstract
What has been the role of international courts and tribunals (ICaTs) in relation to violent conflict? This is the question at the heart of the present contribution. It demonstrates that, over time, ICaTs have come to render decision upon decision, but - contrary to the expectations of early arbitration movements - hardly ever prevent wars between nations. Their mandates have been expanded, but typically only cover aspects of violent conflicts. Having surveyed this general development, the contribution sketches out the evolving legal framework governing courts and conflicts. It discusses which aspects of violent conflicts are addressed by ICaTs under contemporary international law and highlights current challenges of ‘conflict litigation’.
