Criminal justice law

This much anticipated second edition engages with the Genocide Convention’s provisions on an article-by-article basis and illustrates how they contribute to the global fight against genocide.

This book provides an in-depth analysis of the Convention’s nineteen provisions. It gives authoritative guidance on the definition of genocide, the duties of states to prevent and punish it, and on the Convention’s implementation regime. It takes into account new developments, including:

·

the rise of genocide-related proceedings before the International Court of Justice, including in high-profile cases between The Gambia and Myanmar and Ukraine and Russia; ·

new decisions, by national and international courts, specifying the scope of the prohibition against genocide; ·

recent case-law of the European Court of Human Rights bearing on genocide.

Building on the success of the first edition, the book will be of interest to academics, students and practitioners working in international law, criminal law, genocide studies and human rights.
