Prevention and punishment of the crime of genocide


‘The UN Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide provides that States are under an obligation to ‘prevent and punish’ the crime of genocide. In the Bosnian Genocide Case (2007), however, the ICJ interpreted the Convention as also imposing an obligation on States not to commit genocide themselves (para. 155-179). What methods of interpretation did the Court use to reach that conclusion? In your answer, refer to the VCLT as appropriate.’
