| Riassunto: | The discussions on the notion of “crime against humanity”, far from starting with the Shoah, finds its origin earlier with the notion of “crime of lese-humanity” mentioned in connection with the genocide of the Armenians. At
the League of Nations, around the jurist of Judeo-Russian origin André
Mandelstam, and some others, the Armenian genocide was the occasion of
fruitful legal discussions that tended to make the “Human Right” prevail
over the State sovereignty, as it aimed to the limitation of the power of the
State within its borders. This culminated in a “Declaration of the Human
Rights” (1929), written twenty years before the Universal Declaration of
Human Rights. |
