Rothkopf is linked below, on the website. You can also google it; its a very popular article.

The test is the usual format.

The reference to "history of the court" is really just refering to the little bit of history leading up to the formation of the ICC (Geneva, Nurenberg, Cold War problems, negotiatins in Rome, broad versus narrow).
