Ginevra Le Moli, Human Dignity in International Law
Human dignity has been at the core of international human rights law since the end of World War II, when it was enshrined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the UN Charter. Around the same time and in subsequent years, it was also given a central status in the constitutions of several countries, such as the German Basic Law (Grundgesetz), Article 1 of which proclaims human dignity to be ‘untouchable’ (unantastbar), and the South Afr…

Counteracting Hate Speech as a Way of Preventing Genocidal Violence
Hate speech regularly, if not inevitably, precedes and accompanies ethnic conflicts, and particularly genocidal violence. Without such incitement to hatred and the exacerbation of xenophobic, anti-Semitic, or racist tendencies, no genocide would be possible and persecutory campaigns would rarely meet with a sympathetic response in the general public. In order to successfully prevent genocidal crimes and violence, therefore, it is indispensable to…
