Unlike other books in the field of the study of the crime of genocide, this book captures the nuance and the complex issues of the debate by providing book-length comprehensive examination of the position of contextual elements in light of the evolution of genocide as a concept and the literal legal definition of the crime of genocide, which expressly characterized the crime with only the existence of an individualistic intent to destroy a group. With scholars of international criminal law, students, researchers, practitioners in the field, and international criminal tribunals in mind, the author tackles many of the issues raised on the position of contextual elements in both academic literature and judicial decisions. Nasour Koursami is the Director of Applied Research and a Lecturer at the National School of Administration in Chad. He studied law at Cardiff and Bristol Universities and holds a Ph.D. in International Law from the University of Edinburgh. 410 0$aInternational Criminal Justice Series,$x2352-6726 ;$v17 606 $aInternational criminal law 606 $aHumanitarian law 606 $aHuman rights 606 $aTransnational crime 606 $aInternational Criminal Law 606 $aInternational Humanitarian Law, Law of Armed Conflict 606 $aHuman Rights 606 $aTransnational Crime 615 0$aInternational criminal law. 615 0$aHumanitarian law. 615 0$aHuman rights. 615 0$aTransnational crime. 615 14$aInternational Criminal Law. 615 24$aInternational Humanitarian Law, Law of Armed Conflict. 615 24$aHuman Rights. 615 24$aTransnational Crime. 676 $a340.115094309043 700 $aKoursami$b Nasour$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0970615 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299867203321 996 $aThe 'Contextual Elements' of the Crime of Genocide$92206157 997 $aUNINA
