Examine at least two ethical concerns surrounding supranational courts that may have an influence on the United States’ reluctance to ratify the Rome Statute and respond to the following:

  • Express the extent to which you agree these ethical concerns are valid.
  • Provide a rationale as to why these ethical concerns conflict with American constitutional protections.
  • Provide references to support for your responses.
