Definition of ICC

Definition: ICC is an abbreviation that can stand for two different things:

  1. Interstate Commerce Commission
  2. International Criminal Court

The Interstate Commerce Commission was a regulatory agency in the United States that oversaw transportation and commerce between states. It was active from 1887 to 1995.

The International Criminal Court is a court located in The Hague, Netherlands that prosecutes individuals for war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide.

Example:

  • The ICC was responsible for regulating the railroad industry in the United States.
  • The ICC is currently investigating allegations of war crimes in Syria.

These examples illustrate the two different meanings of ICC. The first example refers to the Interstate Commerce Commission, while the second example refers to the International Criminal Court.
