This panel examined the operation of International Mass Claims Commissions (IMCC), which are ad hoc international judicial institutions created to resolve specific international disputes. IMCCs generally involve a great variety and number of claims and claimants, thus providing a distinctive means to resolve international disputes. This panel seeks to evaluate the effectiveness and viability of IMCCs as international dispute resolution mechanisms. Looking in particular at the examples set by the Iran-U.S. Claims Tribunal, the UN Claims Commission, and the Eritrea-Ethiopia Claims Commission, the speakers assess strengths and weaknesses of these unique institutions. Panelists also considered the use of IMCCs in future situations, as an alternative to standing international tribunals.
