- Majority vote
- Article 36 of the ICJ statute(optional clause): Allows parties to decide whether they want
to give the Court jurisdiction over their current and future international legal disputes.
- Very few states have given the Court this kind of jurisdiction; thus, states usually consent
to the court’s jurisdiction on a case-by-case basis.
- Access to the ICJ is also limited to states.
- All the states involved in a legal dispute must be willing to have the ICJ hear the case
before the Court will consider the merits(verdienste, waarde).
- The ICJ can, however, influence world politics as it is also responsible for providing
advisory opinions on legal questions for the Security Council or the General Assembly,
upon their request(aanvraag).
- Other agencies can also request advisory opinions of the court.
