Authors discuss the background to the Bosnian-Croatian conflict during the 1990s, including an overview of the genocide, the response of the international community & accountability for the perpetrators. The International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY), the International Court of Justice, national courts as well as the continued presence of peacekeeping forces all contribute toward social, economic & psychic recovery. The roles of the European & American governments are severely criticized & policymaking during the conflict needs critical analysis. The conclusion examines the ambiguity that surrounds the precise definition of genocide & the two authors disagree on what constituted genocide in Bosnia & Herzegovina. Ongoing scrutiny of the conflict by the ICTY, including hearing testimony from survivors & expert witnesses continues to provide material for scholars of genocide. For the first time a body now exists to assess the character of a conflict on the basis of the legal definition of genocide. 15 References. S. de Haast

This study also offers important conclusions for similar cases, both in the Western Balkans region and the wider world, where international involvement and federalism as a method of conflict resolution.
