Abstract

U ovom radu se obrađuje tema genocida koji se promatra kao međunarodni zločin i kao međunarodno protupravni čin. U radu se tako analizira najvažniji dokument koji se odnosi na zabranu genocida, a to je Konvencija o sprječavanju i kažnjavanju zločina genocida iz 1948., donesena pod okriljem Ujedinjenih Naroda. Uspoređuju se pojam genocida kao međunarodni zločin za koji može odgovarati fizička osoba, i pojam genocida kao međunarodno protupravni čin za koji je predviđena odgovornost države. U radu se analiziraju elementi genocida: načini počinjenja (actus reus) kao objektivni element, i genocidna namjera (dolus specialis) kao subjektivni element. Posebna pažnja posvećena je zabrani genocida kao jus cogens pravilu međunarodnog prava i erga omnes međunarodnoj obvezi. Za potrebe prikazivanja teorije u praksi, analizirana je najvažnija presuda Međunarodnog suda za pitanje utvrđivanja odgovornosti države za genocid, presuda u slučaju Bosne i Hercegovine (u tekstu: BIH) protiv Srbije.

Abstract (english)

This paper addresses the topic of genocide as an international crime and genocide as an internationally wrongful act. The paper thus analyzes the most important international legal instrument, which contains the prohibition of genocide, the 1948 Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, adopted within the auspices of the United Nations. The author compares genocide as a crime under international law, for which a natural person can be held accountable, and genocide as an internationally wrongful act, for which a state can be internationally responsible. The paper also analyzes the elements of genocide: modes of the commission of genocide (actus reus), as the objective element, and the genocidal intent (dolus specialis), a the subjective element. Special attention is given to the prohibition of genocide as a jus cogens rule of international law and an erga omnes obligation under international law. In order to illustrate how the theoretical issues are implememted in practice, the paper examines the landmark judgment adopted by the International Court of Justice relevant to the issues of the responsibility of a state for genocide in the case of Bosnia and Herzegovina v. Serbia.
