America's Response to Genocide

This course will examine how the United States has responded to genocide in the Twentieth Century. Has the United States done all it could to prevent the Holocaust and the genocides that occurred in Cambodia, Rwanda, and the Balkans? Is the Sudanese Government currently engaged in genocide? What legal and moral obligation does the United States have when genocide occurs?

This seminar is tentatively scheduled to meet during Full Session on W from 1:25 pm - 2:15 pm.
