My research examines the concept of transitional justice and its application in the case of Serbia. I am looking at how the international judicial intervention embodied in the ICTY has influenced regime change in Serbia following the overthrow of Milosevic. I thus seek to critically re-appraise the arguments put forward by proponents of transitional justice and reconsider the relationship between justice, truth-telling and democratisation.
