Abstract

[The world’s failure to introduce satisfying remedies to prevent future atrocities such as those committed during World War I could surely be considered one of the leading contributors to the deaths, enormous in amount and horrifying in type that occurred during World War II. It could be argued that if some effective measure had been taken in the immediate aftermath of World War I, there would have been no appalling massacres such as the Holocaust as late as the 1940s, when the world was much more civilized in many respects but equally ignorant of large-scale crimes committed against the human race.]
