Summary
Taking as its starting point the existing canon of international law and conventions governing actions during war, Indictment at The Hague represents the most detailed examination of the conduct of the Serbian authorities and the individual responsibility of senior members of its leadership for war crimes. Citing the precedent of the Nuremberg trials, Cigar and Williams link conscious decisions and specific deeds undertaken by the Milosevic regime that violated the protections guaranteed to civilian populations in war. The volume reproduces a collection of key documents from the Hague Tribunal, U.N. Commissions, and Human Rights Organizations which appear in print together for the first time.
