International Law, Kosovo, and the ICTY

The American Society of International Law has published it latest Insight, entitled Ten Years After the War in Kosovo: International Law, Kosovo and the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia, 

 This Insight briefly examines how the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia (ICTY) has addressed war crimes and crimes against humanity alleged to have been committed in Kosovo during the conflict and how its cases have advanced the cause of international criminal justice. The author, Linda Strite Murnane, served as a Senior Legal Officer for ICTY from 2006 - 2008. She is currently the Senior Civilian Attorney with the Defense Institute for International Legal Studies in Newport, Rhode Island.  Click here to read the Insight on Kosovo, ICTY, and International Law . 

Insights are electronically published articles produced periodically by the American Society of International Law (ASIL) and written by legal experts on timely issues dealing with international law.  They make good supplemental reading assignments for students in international law classes (and are also helpful for your own lecture notes). You can find past Insights on a variety of topics by clicking here.
