Security Council resolution to an institution with more than 1,000 employees and a $200 million annual budget. With Stobodan Milosevic now on trial and more than forty fellow indictees currently detained, the success of the Hague tribunal has forced many to reconsider the prospects of international justice. John Hagan's Justice in the Balkans is a powerful firsthand look at the inner workings of the tribunal as it has moved from an experimental organization initially viewed as irrelevant to the first truly effective international court since Nuremberg." "Justice in the Balkans brilliantly shows how an international social movement for human rights in the Balkans was transformed into a pathbreaking legal institution and a new transnational legal field. The Hague tribunal becomes, in Hagan's work, a stellar example of how individuals working with collective purpose can make a profound difference."--BOOK JACKET UR - http://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/description/uchi052/2003008546.html UR - http://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/bios/uchi051/2003008546.html UR - http://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/toc/ecip042/2003008546.html ER -
