(MULTILATERAL [GOVERNMENT]) International court based in the Hague, the Netherlands; founded in 1889; oldest multilateral court. In some respects, a precursor to the International Court of Justice (also in the Hague--in the same building, the [Peace] Palace). The PCA differs from the ICJ in that only national governments [may] be respondents in the ICJ (which operates like a civil court). The PCA settles disputes that [may] arise between a private party (such as RCA, in RCA vs. China-1935) and a national government, or between national governments. Parties submit to the PCA when the dispute is a nuisance to both, but relevant laws are uncertain.
