A Duty to Prevent Genocide: Due Diligence Obligations among the P5
Book information
Description
The permanent five (P5) members of the United Nations Security Council ? China, France, Russia, the UK, and the USA - have a firm duty to prevent genocide in light of the due diligence standard under conventional, customary, and peremptory international law. This perceptive book explores the positive obligations of these states to act both within and without the Security Council context to prevent or suppress imminent or on-going genocide. John Heieck successfully argues why the duty to prevent genocide is not only a customary, but also an absolute norm of international law, and analyses the scope of the due diligence standard regarding the duty to prevent genocide. In doing so, he considers the ramifications of this on the actions of the P5 members of the Security Council, both within and outside of this eminent body. Significantly, Heieck proposes a legal test for identifying jus cogens norms, and explores the effect of these on the actions and omissions of specifically identified members of the United Nations (UN). Topical and insightful, A Duty to Prevent Genocide will be an important read for both academics and students of international law and politics who wish to further understand the legal nature of the duty of the P5 members to prevent genocide. It will also provide valuable insights for policymakers of the P5 member states. 3e1af446_C 72c6d0ed_i 16980c00_ii e9739df4_iii [9781788117708 - A Duty to Prevent Genocide] Copyright [9781788117708 - A Duty to Prevent Genocide] Contents in brief [9781788117708 - A Duty to Prevent Genocide] Full contents [9781788117708 - A Duty to Prevent Genocide] Acknowledgements [9781788117708 - A Duty to Prevent Genocide] Introduction [9781788117708 - A Duty to Prevent Genocide] The P5’s duty to prevent genocide under the Genocide Convention [9781788117708 - A Duty to Prevent Genocide] The P5’s duty to prevent genocide under customary international law [9781788117708 - A Duty to Prevent Genocide] The conflict between the P5’s duty to prevent genocide and the P5’s rights and duties under conventional and customary international law [9781788117708 - A Duty to Prevent Genocide] Resolving the conflict between the P5’s duty to prevent genocide and the P5’s rights and duties under conventional and customary law [9781788117708 - A Duty to Prevent Genocide] Conclusion [9781788117708 - A Duty to Prevent Genocide] Bibliography [9781788117708 - A Duty to Prevent Genocide] Index

Professional Linux kernel architecture ''Wrox programmer to programmer''--Cover. - ''What you are reading right now is the result of an evolution over more than seven years: After two years of writing, the first edition was published in German by Carl Hanser Verlag in 2003. It then described kernel 2.6.0. The test was used as a basis for the low-level design documentation for the EAL4+ security evaluation of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, requiring to update it to kernel 2.6.18 (if the EAL acronym does not mean anything to you, then Wikipedia is once more your friend). Hewlett-Packard sponsored the translation into English and has, thankfully, granted the rights to publish the result. Updates to kernel 2.6.24 were then performed specifically for this book''--P. ix
