Aspects of victim participation in the proceedings of the International Criminal Court
In: International review of the Red Cross: humanitarian debate, law, policy, action, Band 90, Heft 870, S. 409-440
ISSN: 1607-5889
AbstractThe participation of victims in criminal proceedings is generally a rather new phenomenon. While there is a certain tradition of victim participation as "partie civile" in the criminal proceedings of some national jurisdictions, it is a novelty in international criminal trials. The drafters of the International Criminal Court (ICC) Statute chose to design a rather broad victim participation scheme. Although it is hailed as an important and effective instrument for giving victims of gross violations of human rights and international humanitarian law a voice, the procedural and substantive details are far from being settled. Some of the most significant issues are discussed in this article, including the question whether and how victim participation may influence sentencing and punishment.

Determining the fate of missing persons: The importance of archives for "dealing with the past" mechanisms
In: International review of the Red Cross: humanitarian debate, law, policy, action, Band 99, Heft 905, S. 663-688
ISSN: 1607-5889
AbstractThis article discusses the role of archives of transitional justice and "dealing with the past" (DWP) mechanisms when determining the fate of missing persons. The concept of dealing with the past, the terms "enforced disappearance" and "missing person", and the specific role of archives in periods of transition are examined. Subsequently, specific questions and challenges related to access and use of archives by DWP mechanisms, including those mechanisms with a mandate to determine the fate of missing persons, are described. Many questions related to access to archives, information management and preservation of records are similarly applicable to DWP mechanisms in general and to specific mechanisms mandated to search for missing persons. The article provides some examples of States' obligations related to maintaining and providing access to archives that could assist in the search for missing persons under international law and policy. The article concludes by emphasizing the importance of the preservation and protection of archives relevant for dealing with the past. It further highlights the need to grant DWP mechanisms, especially those aimed at determining the fate of missing persons, access to those archives.
