Internationally recognized human rights activist, lawyer, and journalist reported from The Hague on the four year trial of Serbian leader Slobodan Milosevic for war crimes and genocide—a trial that began in 2002 and concluded abruptly in 2006 with Milosevic's death while still on trial. She is here with an important account of that trial, Twilight of Impunity: The War Crimes Trial of Slobodan Milosevic (Duke University Press). "In Twilight of Impunity, Judith Armatta has done for the trial of Slobodan Milosevic, the Butcher of the Balkans, what Hannah Arendt did for the trial of Adolf Eichmann, the Architect of the Holocaust: present an unflinching depiction of the crimes, the anguish of the victims and witnesses, the arrogance of the killers, the virtues and flaws of the judicial process, and the banality of the evil that can arise when leaders assume they enjoy impunity." – Chuck Sudetic.
