Abstract

Abstract The paper discusses how strategic narratives determine our understanding of politics and justice, and how such narratives can be deliberately constructed to achieve political ends through judicial means and by instrumentalizing international criminal law and courts. The article discusses the concept of strategic narratives from an inter-disciplinary perspective and explores the impact of strategic narratives on international criminal justice. For this purpose, it analyzes as a case study the Council of Europe Parliamentary Assembly Report on “Inhuman treatment of people and illicit trafficking in human organs in Kosovo” of 2011, which led to the establishment of the Kosovo Specialist Chambers and the Kosovo Specialist Prosecutor’s Office.
