Abstract
The field of transitional justice has been haunted and enriched by the peace versus justice dilemma and the difficulty of navigating the thin line between the logic of appropriateness and the logic of consequence. These questions have gained renewed urgency over the last two decades as the increasing vigor of international criminal law and the human rights discourse demanded that accountability replace impunity as a general norm after mass atrocities. The goal of this study is to challenge the notion that war crimes courts may undermine peace and stability by adapting this debate to a new institution, the first ever permanent international criminal tribunal, and its first investigations and trials in Central and Eastern Africa. The central thesis of this dissertation is that, in the context of the International Criminal Court's involvement in Uganda, Sudan, and the Democratic Republic of Congo, the pursuit of justice measures has not undermined peace. I set out to examine whether the court's multiple interventions in this region of the world have been followed by a deterioration or exacerbation of the conflicts under study and/or the failure of peace negotiations caused by the question of accountability. I conclude that this has not been the case in the contexts under review, and that it is wrong to present the conceptual pairs of peace and justice as opposing or contradictory.
