1 This paper is part of larger research which was supported by interviews with various international and local actors in Kosovo (e.g., Eulex judges, Osce representatives, Kfor personnel, or academics from the Faculty of Law of the University of Prishtina). I would like to express my special thanks to the Chief Legal Advisor of the Kfor Multinational Task Force South, Colonel Michael Pesendorfer, who arranged my stay in the Kfor military camp in Prizren.
