| Sommario/riassunto: | This book explains why genocides and other atrocities occur, why humanity saw the need to create rules that apply during war, and how culture, rules about war, and the nature of war intersect. It addresses the history and development of the regimes that define genocide and mass atrocity, which factors lead to the adoption of rules, what defines a war "crime," and how the fundamental principles laid out in the Geneva Conventions and other agreements function in modern warfare. |
