Abstract
State compliance with International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia (ICTY) Article 29(d) and (e) obligations, arrest and surrender orders, remains under explored in international criminal tribunal (ICT) scholarship despite the fact state compliance with ICTY orders has often not proved forthcoming from the states of the former Yugoslavia. This Chapter attempts to identify determinants of state compliance with ICT arrest and surrender orders through an exploration Croatia's interaction with the ICTY from 1995 until 2005 and will include a discussion of both the domestic and international politics of state compliance. It will be argued that because domestic incentive structures established a foreign policy preference for non-compliance, only significant external coercion that threatened elite preferences for integration into western security or economic structures served to bring about state compliance.
