It carries out a multi-layered analysis of the question of how the international community triggers international mechanisms to address genocide and crimes against humanity. Despite the United Nations Security Council refraining from taking effective action and making decisions that would have applied appropriate measures, this study concludes that the initiatives of the international community, states, and international organizations possess the capacity to trigger international jurisdiction to punish the perpetrators of such grave international crimes and that international judicial institutions bolster the common values and interests of the international community in such cases.trinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMyanmar; International Crimes; Genocide; International Community; International JurisdictionArticle7069Q24918WOS:000681340200003Q3
