The Social Adaptation of Khmer Rouge Perpetrators in the Aftermath of the Cambodian Genocide
This paper explores the social adaptation of 157 former Khmer Rouge ( KR ) cadres. The cadres lived in relative isolation in the former KR stronghold, the semi-autonomous Anlong Veng, under the leadership of their commander, Chhit Chhoeun (alias Ta Mok). With the help of survey analysis, the paper presents findings regarding the cadres’ traumatisation, their views on assigning responsibility for actions during the genocide (1975–1979), as well as…
The Lingering Effects of Thought Reform
During the Cambodian Genocide (1975-79), about 12,272 to 20,000 people were jailed in the infamous Tuol Sleng (S-21) prison. Only a handful survived. This study focuses on how former S21 perpetrators relate today to their role in the genocide. Through a vast network of fear and torture, the Khmer Rouge instituted a program of "thought reform" in order to accomplish total obedience. Based on court testimonies, archival material, and semi-structure…
Cyprus
This paper underlines the relevance of ambiguity theory to understand the persistence of frames of agents and their audience with regard to ‘self,’ ‘other’ and the ‘land’ in a protracted conflict such as Cyprus. It examines the case study of Cyprus from the signing of the Agreements on Cyprus (1959), through the Turkish intervention (1974) and until the Akinci election (2015). The paper shows how peace agreements may impose ways of looking that e…
Converts, not ideologues? The Khmer Rouge practice of thought reform in Cambodia, 1975–1978
While mistaken as zealot ideologues of Marxist ideals fused with Khmer rhetoric, the Khmer Rouge (KR) cadres' collective profile better fits that of the convert subjected to intense thought reform. This research combines insights from the process and the context of thought reform informed by local cultural norms with the social type of the convert in a way that captures the KR phenomenon in both its general and particular dimensions. Relying on t…
How Peace Agreements Are Derailed
This article investigates the relationship between risk-taking behavior and value prioritization and develops an analytical framework that helps explain where groups stood over time on a high/low conflict continuum in the case of Cyprus (1959–74). It seeks to explain how peace agreements derail by focusing on the evolution of value-frames (the linguistic windows through which we see or interpret) held by agent/stakeholders representing ethnic gro…
