Summary/Abstract: Abstract: Our research suggests continuing difficulties faced by the ICTY in establishing its legitimacy in the states over which it exercises oversight. Only some of these problems derive from pre-existing political orientations in support of the parties which organized and carried out violations of international humanitarian law. Other problems are more closely related to the ICTY's own procedures, to a lack of clarity regarding the purposes of the ICTY, and to the issue of communication between the ICTY and its local publics.
