Study title

This database contains all press releases and public statements placed on the ICC website's 'News' section and attributed to the Office of the Prosecutor between 24 April 2003 and 2 November 2018.

The ICC website is https://www.icc-cpi.int.

The dataset allows:
1. The user to see whether 'justice' refers to victims or a defendant; or whether it refers to doing 'justice' generally; or in other contexts (for example, in phrases 'peace versus justice', or 'transitional justice', or in titles of documents).

2. The user to see the rationales that justify why justice should be done for the victims;

3. The user to see whether, when 'justice' is referred to in the context of defendants, defendants are treated as being responsible, allegedly responsible, neutrally, or whether there is a recognition of their due process rights;

4. The user to see uses of the word 'impartial' or 'impartially'.
