A chapter from James J. Martin’s exposition on Raphael Lemkin, the man behind the Geneva Convention on genocide and the coiner of the term itself, has been introduced to Anti-War Propaganda canon, located here:
It is highly representative of Martin’s writings on the subject of wars, particularly where it dwells upon the influence of opinion writers in the shaping of attitudes among the powerful. In this instance, context is restored to the faulty narratives promulgated by the principle advocates of the Convention and the concept behind it. It is an act of historical revisionism, in the best sense of that impulse, and provides an important piece of history that otherwise has been ignored to death for the most part.
