      ab: International judicial intervention is becoming the standard mechanism for dealing with the atrocities that have been committed during the periods of war, ethnic violence, and social upheaval that have occurred since the end of the cold war. Recent acts of genocide, crimes against humanity, and violations of the customs and laws of war have ignited global indignation and prompted demands for national or international remedies. As interethnic conflicts often proceed without a clear victor and with no faction immune from culpability for atrocities, it becomes essential to practice victims' justice. This results in judicial intervention without the use or threat of military force. The type of judicial procedure utilized ranges from truth commissions to ad hoc tribunals to the possibility of a permanent international criminal court. The ad hoc criminal tribunals that were established by the UN Security Council for the former Yugoslavia in early 1993 and for Rwanda in late 1994 are discussed.
