The Politics of Genocide Chicago : Rutgers University Press,c2022 9781978821460 Includes bibliographical references (pages [147]-197) and index.Introduction : genocide and state impunity -- Territorializing prevention of genocide -- Redefining the crime of genocide for reasons of state -- The ICJ as enabler of state impunity for genocide -- The P-5 and discretionary non-application of the genocide convention -- The responsibility to protect and P-5 impunity -- Conclusion : the persistent outlaw, perpetual impunity, and the field of genocide studies."Beginning with the negotiations that concluded with the unanimous adoption of the United Nations Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide on December 9, 1948, and extending to the present day, the United States, Soviet Union/Russia, China, United Kingdom, and France have put forth great effort to ensure that they will not be implicated in the crime of genocide. If this were to fail, they have also ensured that holding any of them accountable for genocide will be practically impossible. By situating genocide prevention in a system of territorial jurisdiction; by excluding protection for political groups and acts constituting cultural genocide from the Genocide Convention; by controlling when genocide is meaningfully named at the Security Council; and by pointing the responsibility to protect in directions away from any of the P-5, they have achieved what can only be described as practical impunity for genocide. The Politics of Genocide is the first book to explicitly demonstrate how the permanent member nations have exploited the Genocide Convention to isolate themselves from the reach of the law, marking them as "outlaw states.""--Provided by publisher.Genocide, Political Violence, Human RightsGenocide (International law)Genocide interventionPolitical aspectsResponsibility to protect (International law)Political aspectsUnited Nations, UN, Geneva Conventions, The Genocide Convention, legal definition of genocide, The Secretariat Draft, Ad Hoc Committee Draft, political analysis, United Nations analysis, Books on Law, World Law, the Holocaust, Jewish genocide, Jewish oppression, The Armenian Genocide, judicial systems, justice and law, international law, World War 2, The Final Solution, Adolf Hitler, International Criminal Court, International Court of Justice.Genocide (International law)Genocide interventionPolitical aspects.Responsibility to protect (International law)Political aspects.345/.0251Bachman Jeffrey S.1208556MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910862089503321The politics of genocide4166710UNINA
