| Popis: | Trying to understand why genocide occurs is crucial to a full understanding of the crime and hopefully its prevention. There is no single reason why genocide might occur; there are many reasons and many possible explanations for it. This chapter looks at the different academic explanations for genocide from a variety of disciplines. Ideally, after exploring the myriad theories one can look for common factors among the disciplines that might help explain how we understand genocide. |
