Abstract

In this volume, the author analyzes the recent wartime phenomenon of the "military policy of rape for the purpose of genocide", implemented by Serbian soldiers in Bosnia-Herzegovina and Croatia during the recent conflict in the region. This text documents the existence of rape/death camps in which women were detained and raped repeatedly, often with the goal of impregnating them or as a form of torture before death. The study analyzes the information gathered by the author about genocidal rape and concludes with an argument for the bringing to trial of the perpetrators of this war crime.
