Recenzje

Some kind of Justice is an indispensable book, not just on the ICTY but on the impact (real and potential) of international courts of justice. Unusually combining legal analysis and extensive (and long term) field research, it is a book that could only come about through the exercise of a brilliant mind, attuned to social science, regional history and politics. Its intellectual rigor and sensitivity to plural (and dynamic) criteria of success offer a model for how to overcome romantic or cynical views about international justice. No one interested in that debate can afford not to ponder this book.
