Hardback. Condición: New. A tale of violent terror and chilling unrepentance, from the only woman convicted of crimes against humanity in the Bosnian War.Olivera Simic has written a book that refuses the comfortable distance most of us want when studying people who order ethnic cleansing. She sat across from a woman in her ninet…ies, unrepentant and free, and let her speak. Simic lets the reader hear the cadence of her sentences, the justifications that still feel rational to her, the small, ordinary moments that somehow coexisted with mass murder. That is something rare. That is the willingness to hold complexity so tightly it bruises. Most books about war criminals are written from the outside looking in. Simic's is written from the chair opposite the only woman convicted by the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia. She stayed with her long enough to observe the inner architecture of her thinking.Biljana Plavsic remains the only woman ex-president and high-ranking politician in history convicted of crimes against humanity before international tribunals. Simic never tries to solve the mystery of how a biologist becomes a nationalist, then a convict, then a free woman again. She just presents the mystery in full, without varnish, and trusts the reader to sit in the discomfort. That takes courage. Seven years of interviews, archival documents, and court files. The ethics of bringing such a story to life are mind-boggling since Plavsic was not an outlier. She was a biologist, an academic, a dean of a university and then a political leader who participated in and justified ethnic cleansing during the Bosnian war. That matters. Because it disrupts the convenient narrative that violence at this scale is only carried by men, or only by those outside systems of knowledge.Simic's work offers the proximity-time spent with someone who embodied these contradictions. And that proximity matters, because it allows us to examine not just guilt and responsibility, but how a human being comes to align with systems capable of tearing communities and entire countries apart beyond repair.

Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. 'Compelling.a far-reaching, powerful and personal account.poses fundamental questions about the nature of justice and the effectiveness of international courts.' - Philippe Sands, The ObserverOlivera Simi has written a book that refuses the comfortable distance most of us want when studying…people who order ethnic cleansing. She sat across from a woman in her nineties, unrepentant and free, and let her speak. Simi lets the reader hear the cadence of her sentences, the justifications that still feel rational to her, the small, ordinary moments that somehow coexisted with mass murder. That is something rare. That is the willingness to hold complexity so tightly it bruises. Most books about war criminals are written from the outside looking in. Simi's is written from the chair opposite the only woman convicted by the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia. She stayed with her long enough to observe the inner architecture of her thinking. Biljana Plavi remains the only woman ex-president and high-ranking politician in history convicted of crimes against humanity before international tribunals. Simi never tries to solve the mystery of how a biologist becomes a nationalist, then a convict, then a free woman again. She just presents the mystery in full, without varnish, and trusts the reader to sit in the discomfort. That takes courage. Seven years of interviews, archival documents, and court files. The ethics of bringing such a story to life are mind-boggling since Plavi was not an outlier. She was a biologist, an academic, a dean of a university and then a political leader who participated in and justified ethnic cleansing during the Bosnian war. That matters. Because it disrupts the convenient narrative that violence at this scale is only carried by men, or only by those outside systems of knowledge. Simi's work offers the proximity - time spent with someone who embodied these contradictions. And that proximity matters, because it allows us to examine not just guilt and responsibility, but how a human being comes to align with systems capable of tearing communities and entire countries apart beyond repair. 'Fascinating and terrifying.' - The Irish Independent'A fascinating, insightful and thought-provoking book which takes you into the mind of the only woman convicted by the Yugoslavia tribunal. It is beautifully written . and is an absolute must-read for anyone interested in the causes of mass violence.' - Alette Smeulers, Professor in International Crimes, University of Groningen, and author of Perpetrators of Mass Atrocities: Terribly and Terrifyingly Normal? A tale of violent terror and chilling unrepentance, from the only woman convicted of crimes against humanity in the Bosnian War.

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - In 2001, Biljana Plavsic made history: she became the only female political leader ever prosecuted for mass atrocities. She was the one woman among 161 indictees at the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia--and the first since Nuremberg to be convicted by an international cour…t. Charged with genocide and crimes against humanity, Plavsic took a plea bargain. Just one other Bosnian Serb politician at her level was sentenced: Radovan Karadzic himself, President to Plavsic's Vice-President in the autonomous Republika Srpska. Yet before the conflict, Plavsic had been an globally renowned scientist at the University of Sarajevo, penning journal articles and serving as faculty dean. This gripping book revolves around hundreds of hours of interviews with a stridently unrepentant war criminal--now in her 90s, and a free woman. How did this biology professor end up heading a vengeful ethno-nationalist movement that murdered tens of thousands.
