from Part I - Producing the Edge of Law
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 11 December 2019
All of us working on the war crimes are under the scrutiny of the thousands of victims on different sides. Thus, we must always keep in mind Martin Luther King’s words: ‘Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.’ Those of you, working for the War Crimes Chamber in Sarajevo, will be monitored not only by the International Community, but even more so by your three peoples, two entities, your neighbours. The Court of BH must become a truly national court, which will mean a big step forward towards reconciliation. Enormous effort and crystal-clear fairness are needed to destroy suspicion, prejudice, lack of confidence. It is a great challenge, not a privilege. And in many ways your task will be more difficult, as you don’t have the powers of the International Tribunal, however, your power and authority is even greater – as this is your country.1
