Description



This book contains a systematic assessment of the content and scope of obligations 
to prevent gross human rights violations. There has been a great deal of attention for 
concepts aiming to prevent gross human rights violations, such as conflict prevention 
and the responsibility to protect. Yet despite this shift in attention towards prevention, 
it has remained unclear what legal obligations states have to prevent gross human rights 
violations under international human rights law.


The focus in this book is on three specific types of injury prohibited under international 
human rights law: torture, arbitrary death and genocide. Further distinctions are made 
between four temporal phases (long-term prevention, short-term prevention, preventing 
continuation, preventing recurrence) and territorial and extraterritorial obligations.


The structure of the book allows academics and practitioners to learn about obligations 
to prevent gross human rights violations in a general sense, as well as find targeted 
information on the content and scope of obligations in specific settings.
