ABSTRACT

This chapter considers some Reflections on the Rome Conference. It is true that, recently, the schedule of the presidential election had foreseen today for the first voting, but it is also true that many electoral rounds seemed inevitable in order to have a new Head of State. From the Hague, seat of the Criminal Court for the territories of the former Yugoslavia, have come to honour the Conference Adriaan Bos, the man whose contribution in the preparatory phase was decisive for the coming into life of the Rome Statute, and Antonio Cassese, the man who was really fundamental for the start of the works of the ad hoc Tribunal. Well, nobody better than them could illustrate the growing concern for the problem of the relationship between the International Criminal Court in itinere and the Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia already active.
