Today's international war crimes tribunals lack police powers, and
therefore must prod and persuade defiant states to co-operate in
the arrest and prosecution of their own political and military
leaders. Victor Peskin's comparative study traces the development
of the capacity to build the political authority necessary to exact
compliance from states implicated in war crimes and genocide in the
cases of the International War Crimes Tribunals for the former
Yugoslavia and Rwanda. Drawing on 300 in-depth interviews with
tribunal officials, Balkan and Rwandan politicians, and Western
diplomats, Peskin uncovers the politicized, protracted, and largely
behind-the-scenes tribunal-state struggle over co-operation.
