Dr. Maxine Kamari Clarke of Yale University will conduct research on international justice and human rights as these concepts have been interpreted by the International Criminal Court and the African Union Commission. The past two years have witnessed the ICC's intensive focus on African states, including arrest warrants for numerous African leaders. The proposed research -- shaped by current theoretical debates on the globalization of human rights, the anthropology of justice, and genealogies of affect -- explores contestations over justice, documenting the making of the Rome Statute for the ICC and the corresponding rise of the rule of law movement. The project will take place at two critical sites: (1) the ICC at The Hague, in which investigations and adjudication are ongoing; (2) the AU Commission in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, where political, economic and culturally shaped decision-making is underway toward the development of an African court with the jurisdiction to handle international crimes committed by individuals. Data will be collected at each site through a variety of social science methods, including interviews, participant observation, and archival research, and analyzed to test three major hypotheses concerning (1) the globalization of human rights and the cooperation of AU leaders; (2) the factors affecting the nature and form of struggles over the meanings of justice; (3) the structures of affect that shape AU cooperation with the ICC.As international justice mechanisms continue to evolve, there is a special urgency to this research as it relates to appropriate forms of legal involvement in the pursuit of peace. This project will advance scientific understandings of international law and justice in the field of Law and Social Sciences, especially in anthropology or interdisciplinary studies of law. The research will also contribute to the training of a graduate student. The empirical findings of this study will be of great importance to policymakers, providing insights into the motivating factors, experiences, and concerns of international justice mechanisms. This research was co-funded by the Cultural Anthropology program and the Law and Social Sciences program.

耶鲁大学的Maxine Kamari Clarke博士将研究国际刑事法院和非洲联盟委员会对国际司法和人权概念的解释。 过去两年，国际刑事法院集中关注非洲国家，包括对许多非洲领导人发出逮捕令。 拟议的研究-由目前关于人权全球化、正义人类学和影响谱系学的理论辩论形成-探讨了对正义的质疑，记录了国际刑事法院《罗马规约》的制定和法治运动的相应兴起。 该项目将在两个关键地点进行：（1）海牙的国际刑事法院，正在进行调查和裁决;（2）埃塞俄比亚阿迪斯的Au委员会，正在进行政治、经济和文化方面的决策，以建立一个拥有处理个人所犯国际罪行管辖权的非洲法院。 将通过各种社会科学方法，包括访谈、参与者观察和档案研究，在每个地点收集数据，并进行分析，以检验三个主要假设：（1）人权的全球化和Au领导人的合作;（2）影响正义含义斗争的性质和形式的因素;（3）人权的全球化和非盟领导人的合作。（3）影响Au与国际刑事法院合作的结构。随着国际司法机制的不断发展，这项研究特别紧迫，因为它关系到在追求和平过程中以适当形式进行法律的参与。 该项目将促进在法律和社会科学领域，特别是在人类学或法律的跨学科研究中对国际法和司法的科学理解。 本研究也将有助于培养一名研究生。 这项研究的实证结果将对决策者非常重要，有助于深入了解国际司法机制的激励因素、经验和关切。 这项研究由文化人类学计划和法律与社会科学计划共同资助。
