This war crime occurred on March 26, 1992, when various formations mixed between Bosniaks and Croats, with the markings of Croatian military formations, crossed the Sava River from Croatia and committed a war crime against the Serb population in Sijekovac. The motive and cause of the attack on Sijekovac remains questionable to this day. Serbian sources claim that Croat-Bosniak forces killed civilians and set fire to around 50 houses in the village without any reason, while Human Rights Watch states that it could not establish allegations of massacre because it was an armed conflict between Serb and Croat-Bosniak soldiers, while which killed about 20 soldiers. Civilian casualties in that conflict occurred by accident, when the locals found themselves between two conflicting parties. In May 2014, the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina sentenced Zemir Kovačević to ten years in prison. As a member of the Intervention Platoon of the 1st Bosanski Brod Brigade, during the months of March and April 1992, and July and August of the same year, he participated in murders, torture, illegal imprisonment, forced labor, alone and with unidentified members of the HOS and the Croatian Army (HV) in the area of the municipality of Bosanski Brod.

Why would anyone commit a mass atrocity such as genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes, or terrorism? This question is at the core of the multi- and interdisciplinary field of perpetrator studies, a developing field which this book assesses in its full breadth for the first time. 'Perpetrators of International Crimes' analyses the most prominent theories, methods, and evidence to determine what we know, what we think we know, as well as the ethical implications of gathering this knowledge. It traces the development of perpetrator studies whilst pushing the boundaries of this emerging field. The text includes contributions from experts from a wide array of disciplines, including criminology, history, law, sociology, psychology, political science, religious studies, and anthropology.

International criminal law has witnessed a rapid rise after the end of the Cold War. The UN refers to the birth of a new 'age of accountability', but certain historical objections, such as selectivity or victor's justice, have never fully gone away, and many of the justice dimensions of international criminal law remain unexplored. Various critiques have emerged in socio-legal scholarship or globalization discourse, revealing that there is a stark discrepancy between reality and expectation. Linking discussion of legal theories, case-law and practice to scholarship and opinion, A Critical Introduction to International Criminal Law explores these critiques through five main themes at the heart of contemporary dilemmas: * The shifting contours of criminality and international crimes * The tension between individual and collective responsibility * The challenges of domestic, international, hybrid and regional justice institutions * The foundations of justice procedures * Approaches towards punishment and reparation Suitable for students, academics and professionals from multiple fields wishing to understand contemporary theories, practices and critiques of international criminal law.

The language of international criminal law has considerable traction in global politics, and much of its legitimacy is embedded in apparently 'axiomatic' historical truths. This innovative edited collection brings together some of the world's leading international lawyers with a very clear mandate in mind: to re-evaluate ('retry') the dominant historiographical tradition in the field of international criminal law.
