The roles and places of victims have been the subject of considerable debate in the enterprise of in international criminal justice (ICJ). While victims appear centre stage, there is nothing self-evident about the particular ways in which they do so. In fact, their presentations change and shift. By attending to the practices of their appearance as the workings of representation and performativity, the author has unfolded manifold and indeterminate figurations of victims. The institution of a court is thus a cleaving and pluralisation of victims, whereby some become 'lawful'. Reading the mobility of the victim figurations illuminates the movements of the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia (ECCC) as an institution of ICJ. The ECCC is a place of transition, situated within an enterprise of transitional justice. The victim represents the transition initiated by the ECCC in the sense of marking it, standing for it, descriptively and symbolically.
