How does the united nations define genocide

History
1 answer:
lina2011 [118]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The word “genocide” was first coined by Polish lawyer Raphäel Lemkin in 1944 in his book Axis Rule in Occupied Europe. It consists of the Greek prefix genos, meaning race or tribe, and the Latin suffix cide, meaning killing. Lemkin developed the term partly in response to the Nazi policies of systematic murder of Jewish people during the Holocaust, but also in response to previous instances in history of targeted actions aimed at the destruction of particular groups of people. Later on, Raphäel Lemkin led the campaign to have genocide recognised and codified as an international crime.

Can someone help me really quick:
atroni [7]

Answer:

It doesn't seem like any of these seem to apply- I suggest trying to look elsewhere for answers or looking for a summary on these amendments to see which one fits best. But here's what I can understand s o far in the explanation below.

Explanation:

The 1st amendment is about freedom of speech and religion.

The second is the right to bear arms for a militia.

The 5th is about being able to not  answer questions during a trial, as people can say "I plead the fifth" rather than  committing perjury on stand and under oath by lying.

The 14th amendment  is how people born in the US  are considered citizens of the US even if their parents were from other countries.

Galina-37 [17]

Feudalism was well established in Europe by the 800s CE but appeared in Japan only in the 1100s as the Heian period drew to a close and the Kamakura Shogunate rose to power.

European feudalism died out with the growth of stronger political states in the 16th century, but Japanese feudalism held on until the Meiji Restoration of 1868.

Hope this helps and have a WONDERFUL day!!
