Books by Caroline Fournet

This book explores the ambiguities of the French law of genocide by exposing the inexplicable dichotomy between a progressive theory and a disinclined practice. Observing that the crime of genocide has remained absent from French courtrooms to the benefit of crimes against humanity, this research dissects the reasons for this absence.

Suitable for researchers and academics with an interest in genocide, criminology, international organizations, and law and society, this book examines the law relating to genocide. It explores the failure of society to provide response to incidences of mass atrocity.
