Abstract

The United Nations mandate to the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia (ICTY) includes "to render justice to victims." Rendering justice has many facets. It may include arrest, conviction and appropriate sentencing of the perpetrator(s). For a victim to feel justice has been done, it often also requires a public forum where she can tell her story. It requires that she be listened to with respect. It requires that the community acknowledge her suffering. How well can the ICTY accomplish its mission to render justice to victims? Is it sufficient? The presentation will address this question in the context of the ICTY generally and the trial of Slobodan Milosevic in particular.
