How do you reference an ICJ report?

If you are writing a blog post and you need to cite an International Court of Justice (ICJ) report, you may wonder how to do it properly. There are different citation styles that you can use, such as APA, MLA, Chicago, etc.

According to the APA Publication Manual (7th edition), you should include the following elements in your reference list entry for an ICJ report:

– Name of the court (e.g., International Court of Justice)
– Year of publication in parentheses
– Title of the report in italics
– Case number in parentheses
– URL of the report

For example:

International Court of Justice. (2019). Legal consequences of the separation of the Chagos Archipelago from Mauritius in 1965 (Advisory Opinion No. 169). https://www.icj-cij.org/public/files/case-related/169/169-20190225-ADV-01-00-EN.pdf

If you want to cite the report in your text, you should use the name of the court and the year of publication. For example:

According to the International Court of Justice (2019), the separation of the Chagos Archipelago from Mauritius was unlawful and violated international law.
