Abstract
Much focus has been put on the responsibility of the international community to protect civilians from genocide and other mass atrocities. However, the so-called responsibility to protect is only one of three human-rights-related responsibilities the international community has taken on in such situations. The other two—prosecuting those who commit mass atrocity crimes and providing humanitarian assistance to those affected by these situations—also address key human rights and humanitarian issues. Yet, these three sets of norms and practices are not necessarily mutually supportive. They may at times undermine each other or, at the very least, pose significant conundrums for policymakers and practitioners.
