Markusen and Totten's abstract on Darfur genocide investigation
    for IAGS, Boca Raton

This presentation will examine the motives, methods, and implications of
two unprecedented, historic investigations of alleged genocide while the
killing and dying were going on:  the US government's Atrocities
Documentation Team (ADT) and the United Nations Commission of Inquiry on
Darfur (COI).  The ADT data led to a US government determination that
the atrocities in Darfur constitute the crime of genocide, as defined by
the 1948 United Nations Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of
the Crime of Genocide.  In contrast, the COI did not conclude that
genocide had occurred or was occurring in Darfur, while acknowledging
that further investigation may change that conclusion.  The presenters
will summarize, compare, and critique both initiatives in judicial
intervention.

The authors were investigators on the ADT.
