Gospođa tužiteljica (Carla Del Ponte)
Carla Del Ponte's memoirs bring a tense and uncompromising story about the struggle of the Hague Tribunal against war criminals in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Serbia and Rwanda, and expose political obstructions and the culture of impunity.
The book Madame Prosecutor, co-authored by former Chief Hague Prosecutor Carla Del Ponte and journalist Chuck Sudetic, stands as one of the most significant accounts of the work of the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) and the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda (ICTR). Through a compelling personal and professional lens, the author details the relentless efforts to bring the most powerful political and military leaders—such as Slobodan Milošević, Radovan Karadžić, and Ratko Mladić—to justice. The book offers deep insight into complex and highly charged political maneuvering, behind-the-scenes diplomacy, and the constant struggle against institutional resistance and a "culture of impunity." Del Ponte openly criticizes local authorities in the region, the international community, and leading world powers alike, exposing instances where political interests were prioritized over justice for victims. The authors vividly convey the emotional and psychological toll of confronting the most heinous crimes of modern history, making this work essential reading for understanding international law, the political history of the Balkans, and the pursuit of justice in a post-war society.
