Initially dismissed as ineffective, the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia has evolved into a significant institution, boasting over 1,000 employees and a $100 million annual budget. With Slobodan Milosevic on trial and more than forty others detained, its success has prompted a reevaluation of international justice. John Hagan's account provides an insightful look into the tribunal's transformation from an experimental body to the most effective international court since Nuremberg. Hagan highlights the challenges of creating an institution that transcends national borders, detailing how the tribunal has faced and overcome political and organizational hurdles. Central to its success is the leadership of its charismatic chief prosecutor, Louise Arbour. Through vivid storytelling, Hagan illustrates how Arbour and her team revitalized the tribunal, leading to the indictment of significant figures like Milosevic. This narrative not only chronicles the tribunal's investigations and proceedings but also showcases the evolution of an international social movement for human rights in the Balkans into a groundbreaking legal institution. Hagan's work exemplifies how collective efforts can drive meaningful change, shedding light on the pursuit of justice amidst the darkness of human cruelty.
