Dayton’s Annex 4 Constitution at 20
Designed as a provisional draft constitution, Annex 4 of the Dayton Peace Agreement has functioned as the constitution of Bosnia and Herzegovina since 1995, and is likely to continue to do so for some time. While it has achieved the immediate goal of cessation of hostilities, under the Annex 4 state institutions have grown that are dysfunctional and parasitic while imposing a counterproductive ethnifying dynamic on political activity. Internation…

Guilt, Responsibility, and Denial
"'Guilt, Responsibility, and Denial' sets out to trace the political, social, and moral challenges that Serbia faced from 2000 onward, offering an empirically rich and theoretically broad account of what was demanded of the country's citizens as well its political leadership - and how these challenges were alternately confronted and ignored. Eric Gordy makes extensive use of Serbian media to capture the internal debate surrounding the legacy of t…
The Blaškić trial
In one of ICTY’s first prosecutions of a high-ranking official, Tihomir Blaškić’s 45-year sentence was heralded as an exemplar of decisive justice when it was handed down in 2000. With much of the conviction reversed and the sentence reversed on appeal three years later, the case looked less secure. Much of the conviction and appeal turned on issues of command responsibility, where the ICTY’s jurisprudence set a precedent going beyond that establ…

Accounting for a Violent Past by Other than Legal Means
Considerable attention has been paid to legal aspects of responses to violations of international humanitarian law in the former Yugoslavia, but less attention has been given to cultural dimensions of this issue, which may be at least equally important. The present study follows aspects of the reception of guilt and responsibility in post-Milosevic Serbia, as expressed in public outlets for opinion and in recently published 'war diaries'. The typ…

Most Serbs see the Milošević trial as a chance to settle scores, not heal wounds
Building a “Normal, Boring” Country
The fall of the Milosevic regime has much meaning in itself, and a strong desire to imagine a better future can be sensed everywhere. But nothing is assured unless the new government is able to make this desire concrete
Why Milosevic Still
Milosevic has so far survived the erosion of his political base by relying on the one instrument he has under his undisputed control: state power. ... [But] Milosevic does not deserve all the credit for his own improbable survival. Even at his weakest moments it is impossible to overestimate the impact of the opposition's repeated failure to present a credible alternative

Investigating the Destruction of Alternatives
The Milošević regime has largely succeeded in prolonging its tenure by making alternatives to its rule unavailable. But the destruction of alternatives can never be achieved. It is a process subject to resistance, failure, and loss of energy. The Serbian regime, like any other regime, cannot count indefinitely on the widespread sense of defeat and impotence among the population
