Do War Crimes Tribunals Actually Deter War Crimes?
Since the World War Two era Nuremberg Tribunals of former Nazi officers, human rights advocates have argued that one key value of war crimes tribunals is their potential ability to deter crimes against humanity and war crimes. A new study in the academic journal International Security tests this question with fresh analysis from the Balkan wars in the 1990s. Political Scientist Dr. Jacqueline McAllister of Kenyon College examines the circumstances in which the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia was able — or not — to deter and prevent war crimes during the Yugoslav wars.
