Genocide by Attrition 1939-1993: The Warsaw Ghetto, Cambodia, and Sudan: Links between Human Rights, Health, and Mass Death
Genocide by attrition occurs when a group is stripped of its human rights, political, civil and economic. This leads to deprivation of conditions essential for maintaining health, thereby producing mass death. Genocide by attrition is epitomized by the Warsaw Ghetto (193943), Democratic Kampuchea (197579), and Sudan (198393). Potentialities of response are considered, as well as state and international interests in overlooking genocide, and th…

Life-Integrity Violations and Democracy in the World, 1987
More Murder in the Middle: Life-Integrity Violations and Democracy in the World, 1987 Helen Fein* (bio) I. Introduction Current US foreign policy goals put great stress on extending democracy, and US legislation—never systematically enforced—has banned aid to gross violators of human rights for two decades, making exceptions for aid which benefits needy people. Gross violations of human rights which are criminalized in international law include g…
Prediction, Prevention, and Punishment of Genocide: Observation on Rw@nda and Future Policies
Many people are now asking whether we must passively await the predictable escalation of disaster from the politics of hate and fear to crisis, genocide, and gigantic flows of refugees which, in turn, lead to hunger, thirst, epidemics, the erosion of regions, and destabilization of governments. I think not. These are not inevitable phenomena, like earthquakes, but are man-made calamities. We are witnessing the casualties of the old order of bysta…
Human Rights in Cross-Cultural Perspectives: A Quest for Consensus
Accounting for genocide after 1945: Theories and some findings
Genocide has been related in social theory to both social and political structure: i.e., plural society (ethnoclass exclusion and discrimination) and types of polities - revolutionary, totalitarian and authoritarian regimes. War has also been noted as an instigator or frequent context of genocide. This paper reviews theoretical expectations and examines the empirical relation between genocides (and other state massacres) and indices of ethnic dis…
Revolutionary and Antirevolutionary Genocides: A Comparison of State Murders in Democratic Kampuchea, 1975 to 1979, and in Indonesia, 1965 to 1966
Revolutionary ideologies of both the left and the right have led to genocide and mass murders of unprecedented scope in this century. The survey by Harff and Gurr shows that genocides and politicides-killings of people in groups targeted because of organized political opposition-between 1945 and 1980 may have caused in this same period over twice as many deaths than wars. Such state killings claimed up to 2.6 times the number of lives lost in the…

The Persisting Question: Sociological Perspectives and Social Contexts of Modern Antisemitism
Antisemitism in the 1990s: A Symposium
We recently addressed the following statement and questions on the strength and nature of anti-Semitism in the 1990s to a number of Jews and non-Jews throughout the world: Talk of a ‘revival’ or ‘resurgence’ of anti-Semitism is now commonplace. This seems to be the result of developments in the former USSR and in Eastern and Central Europe since 1989, but also of increasing reports of anti-Semitic incidents taking place throughout Western Europe …
