| Summary: | If current timetables hold, the last trials before the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) will end in 2008, and the Tribunal will close shop altogether in 2010. At that point the court, established by the UN Security Council in 1993 to address atrocities in the Balkans, will pass out of existence. Only from that point on will it be possible to take proper measure of the Tribunal’s full record—its successes and missteps, its accomplishments and limitations., All the same, a number of books have appeared recently assessing the Court’s first decade of work. These books are of necessity mid-term reports. The Milošević trial had entered its fourth year with no end in sight when the defendant died suddenly on March 11, 2006. |
