Judge Richard Goldstone played an instrumental role in bringing apartheid to an end in racist South Africa in the 1990s. President Mandela appointed him to that country’s Constitutional Court and asked him to serve as the first chief prosecutor of the United Nations International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda and the former Yugoslavia.

What were the challenges faced by Judge Goldstone in carrying forward the mandate of the International Criminal Court? What lessons can one draw from that experience for the future of such judicial initiatives? How would an International Anti-Corruption Court fit into our current flawed UN-inspired global governance architecture?
