In 1999, she answered the United Nations' call to become the chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia and for Rwanda. In her new role, Del Ponte confronted genocide and crimes against humanity head-on, struggling to bring to justice the highest-ranking individuals responsible for massive acts of violence in Rwanda, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, and Kosovo. These tribunals have been unprecedented. They operate along the edge of the divide between national sovereignty and international responsibility, in the gray zone between the judicial and the political, a largely unexplored realm for prosecutors and judges. It is a realm whose native inhabitants-political leaders and diplomats, soldiers and spies-assume that they can commit the big crime without being held culpable. It is a realm crisscrossed by what Del Ponte calls the muro di gomma -"the wall of rubber"- a metaphor referring to the tactics government officials use to hide their unwillingness to confront the culture of impunity that has allowed persons responsible for acts of unspeakable, wholesale violence to escape accountability. Madame Prosecutor is Del Ponte's courageous and startling memoir of her eight years spent striving to serve justice Auch als Druckausg. vorhanden Sudetic Chuck (IDREF)130878731 http://www.onleihe.de/wallis/frontend/mediaInfo,55-0-398409470-100-0-0-0-0-0-0-0.html Accès réservé - Netzabhängiger Zugriff BK020053 XK020053 XK020000 Metadata rights reserved rero RERO RE11001 RE11001 RE110010018 - - RERO 100 1- Del Ponte Carla 1947- (IDREF)113671660 cre RERO 700 1- Sudetic Chuck (IDREF)130878731 RERO 856 40 http://www.onleihe.de/wallis/frontend/mediaInfo,55-0-398409470-100-0-0-0-0-0-0-0.html Accès réservé - Netzabhängiger Zugriff SWISSBIB 263302032
