The Czech (Czechoslovak) Experience with the Genocide Convention
Original language description
The contribution focuses on the Czechoslovak contribution to the discussion during the 1948 session of the UN GA Sixth Committee, concerning the (second) Draft Convention prepared by the ad hoc committee of the United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC). The author's aim is to assess the Czechoslovak trace in travaux préparatoires and explain it in a wider historical context - in February 1948, the Communist coup d'état took place which firmly attached Czechoslovakia to the Soviet bloc what, as will be explored, unambiguously predetermined positions and preferences taken by the Czechoslovak delegation. The ccontribution also focuses on the related issue of reservations attached to the Convention at the moment of its signing by Czechoslovakia. The next part analyses and interprets the domestic legislation implementing the Convention and assesses its compatibility with international regulation. The final part also focuses on examples of the possible application, and even the attempted use of domestic implementing legislation – one has to speak only about attempted or possible cases as there has been no real case until recently where this legislation would be tested in practice.
