The book delves into the complexities the International Criminal Court (ICC) encounters when defining individuals eligible for participation in its proceedings. Establishing justice for the victims is one of the paramount objectives of the court, leading to the establishment of a unique system of victim participation. However, the court has faced challenges in meeting the expectations generated by its statute since its inaugural trial.

In response, the book presents a novel approach to defining victimhood by examining the various international crimes. It aims to provide guidance for the right to participate in the different stages of the proceedings by examining national practices. Furthermore, the book offers insights into the functioning of the reparation regime at the ICC through the Trust Fund for Victims and its diverse mandates.

The critical analysis of the ICC's practice in terms of definition, participation, and reparation seeks to promote a realistic approach that avoids disappointing expectations and thus contributes to enhancing the acceptance of the ICC. By examining these aspects, the book aims to provide valuable insights into the workings of the ICC and its efforts to achieve justice for victims of international crimes.
