This book takes a different approach. Through a close reading of the institutional practices of one particular court, it demonstrates how court practices produce the subjectivity of the victim, a subjectivity that is profoundly of law and endogenous to the enterprise of international criminal justice. Furthermore, by situating these figurations within the larger aspirations of the court, the book shows how victims have come to constitute and represent the link between international criminal law and the enterprise of transitional justice. The book takes as its primary example the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia (ECCC), or the Khmer Rouge Tribunal as it is also called. Focusing on the representation of victims in crimes against humanity, victim participation and photographic images, the book engages with a range of debates and scholarship in law, feminist theory and cultural legal theory. Furthermore, by paying attention to a broader range of institutional practices, Figuring Victims makes an innovative scholarly contribution to the debates on the roles and purposes of international criminal justice.War crime trialsCambodiaGenocide survivorsLegal status, laws, etcCambodiaVictims of crimes (International law)War crime trialsGenocide survivorsLegal status, laws, etc.Victims of crimes (International law)341.6/90268Elander Maria1525732FlBoTFGFlBoTFGBOOK9910796748803321Figuring victims in international criminal justice3767285UNINA
