The murder of a reformist premier stalled reforms and put an end to the cooperation with The Hague Tribunal. And, moreover, it opened the door to Serbia’s radicalization. The DOS coalition's incapability and unwillingness to make a break with Milosevic’s policy, particularly the warring one, gave scope to restoration of the ancien regime that triumphed in the early parliamentary election.

Weiner* † Abstract: This Article examines the Strugar decision and its role in estab- lishing the standards for a defendant’s ªtness to stand trial before an in- ternational tribunal. While ªtness to stand trial was an issue in three cases at Nuremberg, those cases failed to establish any standards for the interna- tional criminal justice community. In contrast, the Strugar standards have been followed in other Trial Chambers at the International Criminal Tri- bunal for the Former Yugoslavia, and at The Special Panels for Serious Crimes at the United Nations Tribunal at East Timor.

  • 2001 Released by the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor March 4, 2002
    Yugoslavia, Federal Republic of Page 1 of 44 Yugoslavia, Federal Republic of Country Reports on Human Rights Practices - 2001 Released by the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor March 4, 2002 (The report on the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia is discussed in three separate sections on Serbia, Kosovo, and Montenegro and addresses human rights situations in each of these entities. Since federal authority was exercised effectively only over the Republic of Serbia throughout the year, the human rights situations in Kosovo and Montenegro are dealt with in separate sections following this report.) The Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (Yugoslavia), a constitutional republic consisting of the Republic of Serbia and the Republic of Montenegro, has a president and a parliamentary system of government based on multiparty elections. Vojislav Kostunica was elected President of the Federation in elections held on September 24, 2000 that were closely contested; President Slobodan Milosevic ultimately was unable to manipulate the elections. Massive public protests forced Milosevic to recognize his defeat and cede power on October 6, 2000. Under the constitutional framework, the Federation encompasses the Republics of Serbia and Montenegro; however, the Montenegrin Government has refused to participate in many of the functions of the Federal Government and has acted unilaterally in several areas. The Federal Government presides over a weakened structure, with responsibilities essentially limited to the Foreign Ministry, the Yugoslav Army (VJ), the Customs Administration, civil aviation control, and foreign economic and commercial relations. Although President Kostunica enjoyed wide popular support, significant power was concentrated at the republic level where, in Serbia, Prime Minister Djindjic exercises significant executive authority.

    Volume 90 Number 872 December 2008 Interview with Sergio Jaramillo Caro* The Honourable Sergio Jaramillo Caro is the Colombian Vice-Minister of Defence. Mr Jaramillo Caro studied philosophy and philology at Trinity College, University of Toronto, and Corpus Christi College, University of Oxford. He has an M. Phil. in philosophy from Cambridge University and was a doctoral candidate in Greek at the University of Heidelberg in Germany. He has been an adviser to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, was in charge of diplomacy for peace (2000–1), and was political counsellor at the Colombian embassy in Paris (2001–2). He was also adviser for political and strategic affairs at the Ministry of Defence (2002–3) and drafted the policy of Democratic Security. From 2004 to 2006 he served as director of the Ideas for Peace Foundation in Bogota´. Modern armed conflicts are seeing an increasing civilian participation, and more and more civilians are affected directly by conflict. It is well known that in many armed conflicts of today’s world, it is increasingly unlikely that a soldier will be involved in conventional combat and that, on the contrary, he will find himself operating instead, in Rupert Smith’s phrase, ‘amongst the people’. The challenges of operating in this environment are enormous; they have been seriously underrated by the academic commentators. It is obvious that the civilian population can never be the enemy and that we must do everything to protect it. But where is the line that divides a ‘civilian’ from a ‘combatant’? That is an extremely tricky question, especially when the enemy uses and abuses the civilian population for his own purposes.

  • The Criminalisation of the Intentional Destruction of Cultural Heritage
    University of Technology, Sydney From the SelectedWorks of Ana Filipa Vrdoljak 2016 The rC iminalisation of the Intentional Destruction of Cultural Heritage Ana Filipa Vrdoljak, University of Technology, Sydney Available at: http://works.bepress.com/ana_filipa_vrdoljak/38/ The Criminalisation of the Intentional Destruction of Cultural Heritage Ana Filipa Vrdoljak∗ Introduction The Arch of Titus on the Via Sacra in Rome was erected in 82 AD to commemorate the sacking of Jerusalem by the Roman Emperor Titus. The south panel depicts the procession of spoils from the Temple with the Menorah being carried in the centre of the relief. Hugo Grotius in De jure belli ac pacis (1625) noted that Titus Flavius Josephus, who served Titus during the siege of Jerusalem, argued that the Temple’s destruction was ‘in accordance with the law of war’.1 This relief which has survived two millennia remains a powerful symbol of the deliberate destruction and pillage of the cultural heritage and subjection of a people. As the ancients acknowledged such acts were integral to the conduct of war and belligerent occupation as a means of demoralising enemy and accelerating their conquest.2 However, since the nineteenth century and the earliest efforts to codify the laws and customs of war, the international community has sought to condemn such acts and hold the perpetrators to account. This chapter examines how modern international law is protecting world heritage (‘the cultural heritage of all humanity’) by criminalising the intentional destruction of cultural heritage. [insert Fig.1 Arch of Titus, Rome, Italy]. The permanent recording of the sacking on the Temple in Jerusalem, over and above the physical act of destruction itself, is telling.
