First Judgments of the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia William A. Schabas∗ ∗ Copyright c 2001 by the authors. Fordham International Law Journal is produced by The Berke- ley Electronic Press (bepress). http://ir.lawnet.fordham.edu/ilj Was Genocide Committed in Bosnia and Herzegovina? First Judgments of the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia William A. Schabas Abstract There are to date some six significant judicial pronouncements dealing with the interpreta- tion and application of article 4–genocide - of the ICTY Statute: two Rule 61 hearings; the Trial Chamber rulings in Jelisic, Krstic, and Sikirica; and the Appeals Chamber decision in Jelisic. In the course of these judgments, the ICTY has made important pronouncements about the actus reus of genocide, the nature of the protected groups, the quantitative dimension of the crime, and the concept of intent. It is now nearly a decade since international justice began examining whether genocide was com- mitted in Bosnia. Astonishingly, the really big question-and the most interesting one from a po- litical and historical standpoint-still remains unanswered, namely whether there was an organized plan or policy on the part of the Bosnian Serb leadership, with the complicity of the Belgrade regime, to destroy the Bosnian Muslims within the meaning of article II of the Convention. The ICJ, seized of the matter in March 1993, has yet to adjudicate the question on the merits. WAS GENOCIDE COMMITTED IN BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA? FIRST JUDGMENTS OF THE INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL TRIBUNAL FOR THE FORMER YUGOSLAVIA William A. Schabas* INTRODUCTION When the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia ("ICTY") was established by the Security Council in May of 1993,' it held the promise of being the first international tribunal to prosecute the crime of genocide. Back in 1948, the United Nations General Assembly had experienced considerable difficulty determining the appropriate jurisdiction for genocide prosecutions as it was drafting the Convention for the Preven- tion and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide ("Conven- tion").2 After rejecting recognition of universal jurisdiction,3 the drafters settled on a minimal formula allowing for territorial ju- risdiction but holding out the prospect of a yet-to-be-established international criminal court. According to article VI of the Con- vention: "[p]ersons charged with genocide or any of the other acts enumerated in article III shall be tried by a competent tribu- * Professor of Human Rights Law, National University of Ireland, Galway and Di- rector, Irish Centre for Human Rights. 1.

In the Sixth Committee of the General Assembly, in 1948, Iran proposed the following amendment to the draft convention: "Add a paragraph: 'They may also be tried by tribunals other than those of the States in the territories of which the act was committed, if they have been arrested by the authorities of such States, and provided no request has been made for their extradition.'" U.N. Doc. A/C.6/218. The amendment was rejected by twenty-nine votes to six, with ten abstentions. U.N. GAOR, 100th mtg., U.N. Doc. A/C.6/SR.100 (1948). 24 FORDHAM INTERNATIONAL LAWJOURNAL [Vol. 25:23 nal of the State in the territory of which the act was commit- ted, or by such international penal tribunal as may have juris- diction with respect to those Contracting Parties which shall have accepted its jurisdiction."4 Efforts to create such an international tribunal were launched immediately by the General Assembly,5 but nothing substantial came of them for more than four decades.6 In late 1992, inter- national organizations began to make charges that genocide was being committed in the ongoing conflict in Bosnia and Herzego- vina.7 An application to the International Court of Justice ("ICJ") filed by Bosnia and Herzegovina in early 1993 relied on article XI of the 1948 Convention, and focused still more atten- tion on the claim that genocide was being committed. The pro- visional measures ordered by the Court, on April 8, 1993, seemed to confirm the credibility of the charge.8 A few days later, in a resolution referring to the ICJ order, the Security Council used the word "genocide" for the first time in its his- tory.9 And of course, popular journalistic accounts repeatedly described the ongoing atrocities in Bosnia and Herzegovina as 4.

The definition set out in article 4 essentially reproduced the text of articles II and III of the 1948 Convention. 12 But it soon became rather clear that the focus of the ICTY would be upon the other two catego- ries of crimes within its subject matter jurisdiction, namely war crimes and crimes against humanity. The initial indictments were extremely parsimonious in making accusations of geno- cide. The Prosecutor was quite obviously hesitant to present in- dictments for genocide in the former Yugoslavia, in marked con- trast to his policy with respect to indictments before the Interna- tional Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda ("ICTR"). The Prosecutor's caution in preferring accusations of genocide be- came manifest in the very first case to actually come to trial. Af- ter Dusko Tadic was arrested in Germany, national courts pro- ceeded against him for aiding and abetting genocide, as well as torture, murder, and causing grievous bodily harm.14 Although Tadic was only a minor player in Bosnian war crimes, the youth- ful International Tribunal was hungry for work and jumped at the chance to preempt the German courts. 5 But the Prosecutor 10.

  • Sarajevo Heart of Europe the First European WWI Commemoration
    Sarajevo Heart of Europe The First European WWI commemoration On and around June 28th 2014 Press kit Press relations: Heymann, Renoult Associées Sarah Heymann, Lucie Cazassus, Elodia Ferreira and Abigail Nogues International press: [email protected] National and regional press: [email protected] Tel: +33(0)144 617 676 www.heymann-renoult.com Editorial The idea took form in the spring of 2011. Sarajevo had to be the place, June 28th 2014 the date, for the start of the European commemorations for the centenary of the First World War. Driven by this conviction, we, together with the producer Fabienne Servan- Schreiber, set off for Sarajevo. Once there, we very soon met with some of our companions in this extraordinary adventure: the then mayor of Sarajevo, Alija Behmen, to whom we would like to pay tribute, Francis Bueb and the group of people at the Centre André Malraux, brothers to the city in its darkest hours, the Sarajevo Film Festival and the Sarajevo Jazz Fest, both embody Sarajevo’s cultural excellence. The French Ambassador in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Roland Gilles, convinced Europe to join us on this adventure. Sarajevo had long aspired to the honor of being European Capital of Culture. The year of commemoration of the outset of the First World War fulfilled this ambition, at last. Peter Sorensen, the special representative of the European Union in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Pierre Mirel, then director of the European Commission’s Directorate General for Enlargement, immediately believed in the project. Sarajevo may not be European Capital of Culture in 2014, but for a few weeks around the symbolic date of June 28th it will be the “Heart of Europe”.

These trends owe their popularity to, among others, favorable climatic conditions, interesting tourist attraction and folklore. One of the countries that attracts a large number of tourists is North Macedonia. The local population is increasingly taking actions to attract the attention of foreigners, also by means of promoting national cuisine. Macedonian dishes perfectly reflect the spirit of the Balkans and fresh fruit and vegetables testify to the high quality of food products. Data pertaining to the popularity of Macedonian cuisine among tourists and locals were collected using a survey. The group of respondents includes 130 visi- tors and 31 residents of North Macedonia. The results of the study showed that the local dishes are still identified with the entire Balkan area and their origin is often confused. Traditional Macedonian dishes, however, thanks to good promotion and advertising have the potential to become a strong factor attracting foreign tourists. Keywords: North Macedonia, food tourism, traditional dishes, culinary festivals 1.
