Genocide and international law

‘Genocide’ (meaning “to kill a group”) was first used as a legal term in 1944 by Raphael Lemkin in the hope that it would come to signal the agreed limits of sovereign power, alongside the parallel developments of the concepts of human rights and crimes against humanity. Professor Philippe Sands Hon FBA explains the origins of the term, its legal implications and consequences in this 10-Minute Talk.
Speaker: Philippe Sands Hon FBA, Professor of Public Understanding of Law at University College London.
