International Law Speaker Series
2008-09: After Outrage: Human Rights Abuses and the Search for Accountability Countries emerging from situations of war, civil conflict, genocide or ethnic cleansing face a daunting task in rebuilding their societies and returning to order. There have been a number of responses to mass atrocities and human rights violations. Some countries have sought to prosecute perpetrators in domestic courts. There have also been efforts to establish international tribunals to prosecute perpetrators. Most legal responses, however, have been slow to form and limited in scope. Co-sponsored by the Institute for International, Comparative, and Area Studies (IICAS) and the International Legal Studies Program at California Western School of Law (CWSL).
