Abstract
This research paper will examine whether the ICC should de lege ferenda be accorded
jurisdiction in respect of the crime of corruption. Through this approach, the paper will
contribute to the existing literature on corruption that argues in favour of an elevation of corruption to a crime under international law and, in addition, will proffer a specialised mechanism for addressing the problem.
