Abstract
Dean MacGill, Professor Janis, ladies and gentlemen. I have been asked by Professor Janis to concentrate during the next thirty minutes on the utility of the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (hereinafter "ICTY"). I understand that Professor Sohn, who will follow, will talk about the history of war crimes tribunals. In particular, he will concentrate on the legacy of war crimes tribunals and will discuss the differences between the International Military Tribunals, i.e., the Nuremburg and Tokyo tribunals set up after the Second World War, and the ad hoc criminal tribunals set up by the United Nations in 1993 and 1994 for the former Yugoslavia and Rwanda respectively.
