Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: In this paper, I will examine American exceptionalism as the explanation for why the United States initially supported the creation of an International Criminal Court but now opposes it. I will draw comparisons between the Rome Statute and other human rights-related treaties which the United States initially supported but then either refused to ratify or took a particularly lengthy process to ratify. The Rome Statute will be compared to the Genocide Convention, the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, the International Covenant on Economic, Social, and Cultural Rights, and the Torture Convention. I will explore the American conception of human rights ands its willingness to bind national policy to international instruments, as well as other common American exceptionalist themes as the importance of domestic political actors, the difficulty of getting the supermajority required for treaty ratification, and the feared use of American courts to advance international political agenda. The conclusion will evaluate American exceptionalist arguments against other potential arguments to explain American opposition to the ICC.
