Abstract

War crimes committed in every country call into question its basic values. They do not kill and injure only the body but attack the soul of society and each of its individuals. The crimes committed go a step further, they destroy the fabric of society that binds its members together. Most importantly, they call into question one of the most important values of every society – justice. And a society without justice is, by the logic of things, a society of injustice. In such a society, in a society that justifies the crime at the Tuzlanska kapija (Tuzla Gate), it is impossible to build honest relationships among its members, and to offer justice and peace to the victims and society. The irony of life is that even if a society wanted to achieve such justice, the essential question is whether this is even possible.
