Reducing Genocide to Law: Definition, Meaning, and the Ultimate Crime - Cambridge Studies in International and Comparative Law
Akhavan, Payam (McGill University, Montreal)
This original and daring book asks the simple but overlooked question of whether genocide is in fact the 'ultimate crime'. It begins by challenging the myth that other international crimes are less important and goes on to explore the sensibility of reducing overwhelming evil to the confines of legal reasoning.
