  • Summary

    Chapter 7, ‘The MICT and the Archive’, turns to the Residual Mechanism for the International Criminal Tribunals (MICT), the institution that took over the remaining functions of the ICTR after it closed down. This looks at the extent to which the logics that underpinned the ICTR’s archive were replicated at the MICT, specifically through a reading of the materiality of the archive, which sits at the heart of the new MICT complex in Arusha. In doing so, this demonstrates that whilst the rhetoric that surrounded the MICT revived the broad idea of justice that underpinned the ICTR at is inception, the reality was that an even narrower vision of justice came to underpin the archive. This also draws on Pierre Nora’s understanding of Lieux de Memoire to examine the dynamic between remembering and forgetting that is at the heart of the archive.
