Never Again? The United Nations And Genocide: A Doomed Mission?, Maria Terrinoni
Never Again? The United Nations And Genocide: A Doomed Mission?, Maria Terrinoni
Capstone Showcase
Despite their commitment to international peace and security and to the concept of “never again,” the United Nations has failed to end the many genocides of the late 20th century. In this thesis, I use the genocides in Rwanda (1994) and in the Yugoslav Wars (1991-1999) as case studies to understand the UN’s response to genocide and to attempt to understand why the UN cannot effectively respond to and end genocide. I discover that issues such as the limitations of the Genocide Convention, the importance of state sovereignty, and overall institutional failures of the United Nation make any attempt to …

Peran Indonesia Dalam Menangani Etnis Muslim Rohingya Di Myanmar, Mohammad Rosyid
Peran Indonesia Dalam Menangani Etnis Muslim Rohingya Di Myanmar, Mohammad Rosyid
Jurnal Hukum & Pembangunan
Indonesia is a country that is independent but actively participates in global politics including in the case of state or majority oppression against minority ethnic or group, such as the case of Rohingya in Myanmar. Rohingya is a moslem minority ethnic living in Myanmar targeted in genocide and banished from the country under the military government. Meanwhile, the civil leader of Myanmar, Aung Sang Suu Kyi, remains silent despite her Peace Prize Nobel. On the other hand, the political stance of ASEAN needs to be strengthened to find the solution for Rohingya without intervening internal affairs of the country. Indonesia …

The Right-To-Work For Rohingya In Thailand, Lara Thiele
Notre Dame Journal of International & Comparative Law
The world finds itself currently in the biggest refugee crisis in history. Many individuals have to leave their home country and escape to a new home, hoping to remain there and begin a productive and dignified life. The stateless Rohingya are a group that has been part of this migratory movement due to the group’s maltreatment in Myanmar. Many Rohingya have gone to Thailand, where they have remained for over twenty years, without the permission to work or remain in the country lawfully. In fact, the current Thai laws neglect to allow for the Rohingya to remain lawfully in Thailand …

Straining To Prevent The Rohingya Genocide: A Sociology Of Law Perspective, Katherine Southwick
Genocide Studies and Prevention: An International Journal
This paper analyzes the generally muted international response to the protracted plight of the Rohingya, a persecuted Muslim minority in Myanmar, from the perspective of sociology of law. The first part provides background on the Rohingya crisis and discusses relevant international legal frameworks relating to crimes against humanity and genocide. The second part adapts analytical frameworks developed by Felstiner, Abel, and Sarat on the emergence and transformation of disputes, in order to examine some of the factors that frustrate the processes of naming crimes, blaming perpetrators, and claiming rights and protection for the Rohingya minority in the international context. Work …
