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.""-- $c Provided by the publisher. 610 20 $a United Nations. $b Security Council. 630 00 $a Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide $d (1948 December 9) 610 27 $a United Nations. $b Security Council. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00545731 650 0 $a Genocide (International law) $x Political aspects. 650 0 $a Genocide intervention $x Political aspects. 650 0 $a Responsibility to protect (International law) $x Political aspects. 650 6 $a Devoir d'ingerence antigenocidaire $$x Aspect politique. 650 6 $a Responsabilite de proteger (Droit international) $$x Aspect politique. 650 7 $a Genocide (International law) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01765147 830 0 $a Genocide, political violence, human rights series. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231019025402.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=187F8BF2803411ED944134D030ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
