Could the prevailing view that genocide is the ultimate crime be
wrong? Is it possible that it is actually on an equal footing with
war crimes and crimes against humanity? Is the power of the word
genocide derived from something other than jurisprudence? And why
should a hierarchical abstraction assume such importance in
conferring meaning on suffering and injustice? Could reducing a
reality that is beyond reason and words into a fixed category
undermine the very progress and justice that such labelling
purports to achieve? For some, these questions may border on the
international law equivalent of blasphemy. This original and daring
book, written by a renowned scholar and practitioner who was the
first Legal Advisor to the UN Prosecutor at The Hague, is a probing
reflection on empathy and our faith in global justice.
