Abstract

The conflict in the former Yugoslavia during the 1990s brought to international attention the tragedy of intolerance and annihilation in civil war. The absolute form of aggression saw the targeting and destruction of symbols of religious and cultural identity, despite their protection under The Hague Convention of 1954 and the Blue Shield programme.
