This highly original work provides a thought-provoking and valuable resource for researchers and academics with an interest in genocide, criminology, international organizations, and law and society. In her book, Caroline Fournet examines the law relating to genocide and explores the apparent failure of society to provide an adequate response to incidences of mass atrocity. The work casts a legal perspective on this social phenomenon to show that genocide fails to be appropriately remembered due to inherent defects in the law of genocide itself. The book thus connects the social response to the legal theory and practice, and trials in particular. Fournet's study illustrates the shortcomings of the Genocide Convention as a means of preventing and punishing genocide as well as its consequent failure to ensure the memory of this heinous crime.

Editorial Reviews

Review

'Genocide still features on today's front pages. This book offers intriguing insights into our collective failures of imagination and practice in preventing and punishing mass atrocity. It will be of interest to lawyers and policy makers, and to all who seek to understand the origins of our tragic institutional shortcomings and our moral debt to the memory of the victims.' David Fraser, Professor of Law and Social Theory, University of Nottingham
