Question: When did the authority that controls monetary policy in the major western power exempt from charges of genocide against itself start quantitative easing?

the study of genocide has mainly been focused towards the legal aspect of the term. by formally recognizing the act of genocide as a crime, involves the undergoing prosecution that begins with not only seeing genocide as outrageous past any moral standpoint but also may be a legal liability within international relations. when genocide is looked at in a general aspect it is viewed as the deliberate killing of a certain group. yet is commonly seen to escape the process of trial and prosecution due to the fact that genocide is more often than not committed by the officials in power of a state or area. in 1648 before the term genocide had been coined, the peace of westphalia was established to protect ethnic, national, racial and in some instances religious groups. during the 19th century humanitarian intervention was needed due to the fact of conflict and justification of some of the actions executed by the military. <SEP> Specifically, banks' excess reserves exceeded 6 percent in 1940, whereas they vanished during the entire postwar period until 2008. The US Federal Reserve belatedly implemented policies similar to the current quantitative easing during the Great Depression of the 1930s. Despite this fact, many commentators called the scope of the Federal Reserve quantitative easing program after the 2008 crisis ``unprecedented ''. <SEP> Monetary policy concerns the actions of a central bank or other regulatory authorities that determine the size and rate of growth of the money supply. For example, in the United States, the Federal Reserve is in charge of monetary policy, and implements it primarily by performing operations that influence short - term interest rates. <SEP> All signatories to the CPPCG are required to prevent and punish acts of genocide, both in peace and wartime, though some barriers make this enforcement difficult. In particular, some of the signatories—namely, Bahrain, Bangladesh, India, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, the United States, Vietnam, Yemen, and former Yugoslavia—signed with the proviso that no claim of genocide could be brought against them at the International Court of Justice without their consent. Despite official protests from other signatories (notably Cyprus and Norway) on the ethics and legal standing of these reservations, the immunity from prosecution they grant has been invoked from time to time, as when the United States refused to allow a charge of genocide brought against it by former Yugoslavia following the 1999 Kosovo War. <SEP> slobodan milošević, as the former president of serbia and of yugoslavia, was the most senior political figure to stand trial at the icty. he died on 11 march 2006 during his trial where he was accused of genocide or complicity in genocide in territories within bosnia and herzegovina, so no verdict was returned. in 1995, the icty issued a warrant for the arrest of bosnian serbs radovan karadžić and ratko mladić on several charges including genocide. on 21 july 2008, karadžić was arrested in belgrade, and he is currently in the hague on trial accused of genocide among other crimes. ratko mladić was arrested on 26 may 2011 by serbian special police in lazarevo, serbia. karadzic was convicted of ten of the eleven charges laid against him and sentenced to 40 years in prison on march 24 2016.
