He contends that the missing link in an international legal order is the international criminal court. He encourages involvement on all levels to develop this structure, as it is in everyone's interest to have international security and peace. Other vital components are 1) disarmament; 2) economic sanctions; 3) social justice; and 4) compulsory jurisdiction. A question and answer period follows.
