Beskrivelse
Raphael Lemkin devised the term genocide in 1944 to describe the atrocities perpetrated by the Nazi Regime during World War II. The legislation and prosecution of genocide has been the focus of several international courts since. These are the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) in 1993, the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda (ICTR) in 1994 and the International Criminal Court (ICC) founded in 1988.
