    Achievements and Legacies of the Khmer Rouge Trials: Reflections from Inside the Tribunal
    Hughes, R ; Elander, M ; Sperfeldt, C ; Jarvis, H ; Smith, W ; Nguyen, L ; Lobwein, W (Taylor & Francis (Routledge), 2018)
    This article is an edited transcript of a panel discussion that was held in Melbourne in December 2017. The panel comprised four speakers, each with significant professional experience working at Cambodia’s hybrid tribunal, the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia (ECCC). This panel was the first time such key insiders have come together outside of Cambodia and in an academic context to reflect on more than 10 years of the Court’s operation and their personal experiences there. There is much to be gained by enquiring into the lived experiences of those working at internationalised tribunals. In this article, unique insights are shared in relation to ECCC prosecution and the Court’s legacy of historical and procedural record, the Court’s establishment and outreach, the legal representation of ECCC participating victims (civil parties), and supporting witnesses across different cultural and legal contexts.
