The ICJ first addressed the issue of genocide in an Advisory Opinion in 1951 and revisited it in a series of contentious cases beginning with the Bosnia Herzegovina v. Federal Republic of Yugoslavia case in 1993. This webinar will critically examine the evolving jurisprudence of the ICJ in this issue area. More specifically, participants will analyze the subjective and objective elements of the crime of genocide, evaluate the state parties' arguments in key contentious cases, discuss the relationship between the ICJ and the ad hoc International Criminal Tribunals, and consider the implications of these developments for the pursuit of international justice. Co-hosted by the British International Studies Association International Law and Politics Working Group. PANELISTS: Miao-ling Hasenkamp, Henry Lovat, Henry F. Carey, George Andreopoulos, and Jennifer Davis. MODERATOR: Kathleen Barrett. Interested in staying up-to-date on all of ISA's virtual programming?
