The Milošević Trial: An Autopsy

— Posted under Blog, Law on February 18, 2010

Tim Waters at IU Bloomington has arranged a fantastic conference beginning tomorrow and running through Sunday.  The conference will ultimately result in a book, and given the participants and topics it will likely be required reading for students, scholars and practitioners.  Here are the topics:

  • determining the proper role of historical truth-telling in war crimes trials;
  • measuring the impact of trials in affected communities;
  • refining prosecutorial and judicial strategy in designing war crimes trials;
  • devising case management and institutional design lessons for complex leadership trials;
  • regulating access to trial archives by historians, victim communities and other courts;
  • and considering the relationship between formal, legal processes and broader post-conflict transitional justice initiatives.

    • The full conference website is here.
