This book explores pathways to redress for main groups of
victims/survivors of the 1992-5 Bosnian war -families of missing
persons, victims of torture, survivors of sexual violence, and
victims suffering physical disabilities and harm. The author traces
the history of redress-making for each of these groups and shows
how differently they have been treated by Bosnian authorities at
the state and subnational level. In Bosnia and Herzegovina,
thousands of war victims have had to suffer re-traumatising ordeals
in order to secure partial redress for their suffering during
1992-1995 and after. While some, such as victims of sexual
violence, have been legally recognised and offered financial and
service-based compensation, others, such as victims of torture,
have been recognized only recently with a clear geographical
limitation. The main aim of the book is to explore the politics
behind recognizing victimhood and awarding redress in a country
that has been divided by instrumentalized identity cleavages,
widespread patronage and debilitating war legacies. It shows how
war victims/survivors navigate such fragmented and challenging
public landscape in order to secure their rights.
