Abstract
This article appraises the contribution of the International Court of Justice to international humanitarian law. In its judgments and opinions, the Court has helped to clarify the relationship between the law of armed conflict with general international law, customary norms, and jus cogens and to identify fundamental principles of international humanitarian law.
