International Court of Justice: Process, Practice And Procedure First Edition
D. W. Bowett (Editor),The International Court of Justice (ICJ) has a dual role: to settle legal disputes between States (contentious cases) and to give advisory opinions on legal questions referred to it by authorized UN organs and specialized agencies. The process is governed by the UN Charter, the Statute of the Court, the Rules of Court, and Practice Directions. Process and Jurisdiction Parties: Only States may be parties to contentious cases. International organizations can provide information but cannot bring a case or be a formal party. Acceptance of Jurisdiction: The ICJ is only competent to hear a dispute if the States involved have accepted its jurisdiction. This can occur through: A special agreement for a specific dispute. A jurisdictional clause in a treaty. Reciprocal declarations accepting the Court's jurisdiction as compulsory. Advisory Opinions: These are not binding but carry significant legal and moral weight. They are requested by UN organs (like the General Assembly or Security Council) or specialized agencies on legal questions.

Diplomatic Bluebook 2018. Japanese Diplomacy and International Situation in 2017
It is no exaggeration to say that the security environment surrounding Japan is most severe since the end of World War II, including the increasingly tense North Korean issues. In addition, the international order based on fundamental values, such as freedom, democracy, human rights, and the rule of law, that have underpinned global stability and prosperity is now being challenged by the rise of terrorism and violent extremism. Under these circumstances, in order to maintain the existing international order and address the issues facing the international community, Japan must take on an even greater responsibility and role while collaborating with other countries. Based on this recognition, ever since I was appointed Foreign Minister in August 2017, I have visited countries around the world to proactively convey Japan’s position, and have sought to further enhance Japan’s cooperation with other countries.

Court system of Japan: Supreme Court of Japan
Ninety-two groups across Japan submitted a written request to the Supreme Court and other bodies to ensure that women account for at least one-third of all justices on the top court. The Supreme Court comprises 15 justices, including the chief justice. The most female justices to sit at one time was three. Now, there are only two. Calls have grown for a more balanced gender composition in the Supreme Court, whose decisions can affect family and social systems. Four justices--three men and one woman—will reach the retirement age of 70 this summer. Candidates for justices are picked from among court judges, lawyers and others. The Cabinet makes the appointments after taking into account the view of the chief justice.
