This refers to the requirement in International Law that intended destruction should be directed towards a 'substantial' part of a protected group in order for an atrocity to qualify as genocide. This comprehensive and detailed study draws connections between different judicial approaches to 'substantiality' and the varying theoretical presumptions about the constitutive concepts of the crime. This prima facia doctrinal problem is used as a springboard to scrutinise the broader theoretical problems underlying the legal conceptualisation of genocide. The book systematically explores how the individualistic and collectivistic conceptions of the crime have been able to co-exist in case law, and how the different approaches to assessing substantiality have played a backdoor role between these two conceptions. The work demonstrates that these two philosophical standpoints are far from effectively representing the reality of the protected groups and fully explaining the harm inherent to group destruction. The book revisits the recent philosophical and sociological studies on the crime and, considering ideas from the emerging 'relational approaches to genocide', offers a third way to understand the existing legal representation of the crime and, consequently, the idea of 'substantiality'. It demonstrates the practical significance of its theoretical debates and applies its novel perspective through a case study on South Sudan. This book will be highly useful to students and scholars with an interest in genocide studies, international criminal law and legal theory. It will also be of interest to policymakers engaged with issues around genocide"-- $c Provided by publisher. 500 $a Based on author's thesis (doctoral - University of Southampton, 2020). 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a An introduction to the problem of the identification and justification of 'substantiality' in genocide law -- The emergence of the substantiality requirement as a de factonorm and its judicial application -- The substantiality requirement in the legal literature : uncovering binary and substantialist thinking -- Beyond binary and substantialist thinking : embracing the contingency in the identification and justification of 'substantiality' -- Locating the relevant 'part' in light of the processual nature of group destruction and the contextuality of genocidal intent -- A four-step examination for establishing the crime of genocide -- A case study : the question of genocide in South Sudan and the substantiality requirement. 650 0 $a Genocide (International law) 650 7 $a Genocide (International law) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01765147 776 08 $i ebook version : $z 9781000628562 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20230517010205.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=1DD162EC803411ED944134D030ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
