Abstract: | I first want to express my appreciation to our hosts, the University, the Institute, NPWJ, and the government of Malta. HG Wells in one of his famous remarks commented that the history of civilization is a race between education and disaster. It is in this context that conferences like this one are so important - which bring together experts and leaders of civil society, academia, government and media to appraise and assist in the historic process now proceeding to establish a permanent world tribunal holding individuals responsible for violations of the most heinous crimes against humankind. If we - progressive members of the above-mentioned sectors - succeed in our quest to have the ICC statute adopted in Rome during the next year, the ICC will be the last major international organization established during the twentieth century - the most war-ridden and bloody century in all history.
