Preventing Genocide: A Blueprint for U.S. Policymakers
Albrights, Madeleine K.; Cohen, William S. Co-Chairs
Genocide Prevention Task Force, December 2008, 174p (pdf)
Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, former Secretary of Defense William Cohen
and other leading figures call on new administration and Congress to make preventing genocide and mass atrocities a national priority. The Genocide Prevention Task Force today released its final report on the eve of the 60th anniversary of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide.  The report makes the case for why genocide and mass atrocities threaten core American values and national interests, and how the U.S. government can prevent these crimes in the future.
