Experiments in International Criminal Justice: Lessons from the Khmer Rouge Tribunal

By John D. Ciorciari and Anne Heindel
Michigan Journal of International Law, Forthcoming Fall 2013

Summary: The Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia (ECCC) is the first UN-supported hybrid criminal tribunal to mandate a majority of national judges and to divide key legal and administrative offices and funding mechanisms into distinct national and international sides. It also draws more heavily than any prior internationalized mass crimes process from the civil law tradition, including expansive roles for investigating judges and an ambitious mechanism permitting certain survivors to join the proceedings as civil parties. Experiments in International Criminal Justice: Lessons from the Khmer Rouge Tribunal traces some of the effects of the ECCC’s unique institutional features on various aspects of its performance and draws lessons that can help inform the design and management of mass crimes proceedings going forward.
