The international court system, exemplified by institutions like the International Court of Justice (ICJ), plays a crucial role in resolving disputes between states. It provides a legal framework for countries to address grievances without resorting to military solutions. Through adjudication and mediation, these courts promote the rule of law and help maintain peaceful relations among nations. By interpreting international law and delivering binding decisions, the court system fosters accountability and underpins global governance structures that facilitate conflict resolution.
