presents the Klatsky Seminar in Human Rights
Myres S. McDougal Professor of International Law, Yale University
"Before Victims Become Victims:
Preventing Genocide & Mass Murder"
Since World War II, the world has taken an ex-post punishment
approach toward genocide and mass killing, instead of an ex ante
effective policy of prevention Prof. Reisman will examine contemporary
case studies, including Darfur and Burma, and ask how international law
and international institutions can be used to identify situations ripe
for genocide and intervene at an early stage before they devolve into
mass atrocities?
