Crime of Destruction and the Law of Genocide - Their Impact on Collective Memory

Summary

This work deals with the crime of genocide and with the social and collective memory of this crime. The volume shows that genocide fails to be adequately remembered due to the inherent defects of the law of genocide itself. The book thus links the social phenomenon to the legal theory (the legal norms) as well as to the legal practice (the trials).
