The Crime of Destruction and the Law of Genocide : Their Impact on Collective Memory PDF
by Caroline Fournet
Part of the International and Comparative Criminal Justice series
Description
This highly original work provides a thought-provoking and valuable resource for researchers and academics with an interest in genocide, criminology, international organizations, and law and society.
In her book, Caroline Fournet examines the law relating to genocide and explores the apparent failure of society to provide an adequate response to incidences of mass atrocity.
The work casts a legal perspective on this social phenomenon to show that genocide fails to be appropriately remembered due to inherent defects in the law of genocide itself.
The book thus connects the social response to the legal theory and practice, and trials in particular.
Fournet's study illustrates the shortcomings of the Genocide Convention as a means of preventing and punishing genocide as well as its consequent failure to ensure the memory of this heinous crime.
