"The Genocide Convention" explores the question of whether the law, and genocide law in particular, can prevent mass atrocities. The volume explains how genocide came to be accepted as a legal norm and analyses the intent required for this categorization. The work also discusses individual suits against states for genocide and, finally, explores the utility of genocide as a legal concept.
