Unofficial: The Autobiography of Rafał Lemkin
In the 50s, Lemkin commenced work on his autobiography, which was interrupted by his untimely death. In 2013 the autobiography, edited by Australian researcher Dr Donny Lee-Frieze, was published by Yale University Press. In 2018 the Pilecki Institute prepared the first Polish edition of this remarkable book, which is not only an autobiography of Lemkin but also a meticulous record of his struggle for the adoption and ratification of the Convention on Genocide, which he considered his life's work. The book is a fundamental source for research on the life of Lemkin and his accomplishments. Now, it is also available to the wider public.
