Abstract

After WWII, the world realized the madness of mankind: although the Jewish genocide wasn't the first one in history, it was the first one which the international community became really aware of. In order to punish the terrible war crimes, 2 international military tribunals were created: one in Nuremberg and one in Tokyo. The idea of a necessary international criminal court was then developed: in 1948, the Convention for prevention and repression of genocide referred to the creation of an international court. However, this project was left aside; some believe that this was due to the context of the Cold War. It was only in 1993 that a new international court was created: the international criminal tribunal for former yugoslavia (ICTY) in The Hague, created in order to prosecute serious crimes committed in former yugoslavia since 1991.
