| Abstract [eng] |
The 1992-1995 war in Bosnia was characterised by the extensive use of gender-targeted sexual violence as an instrument of war and terror. Following the Dayton Peace Agreement, the international community began to devise a variety of transitional justice mechanisms to deal with the mass human rights abuses. 25 years later, this paper seeks to not only understand the shortcomings of the ICTY, but to explore beyond the scope of legalism by paying particular attention to the needs of survivors. This paper will look at the variety of ways in which transitional justice initiatives have been ineffective in providing appropriately long-term and comprehensive care to survivors. |
