On the occasion of the 70th anniversary of the UN Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, this seminar aims at interdisciplinary analysis of genocide, the so-called "crime of crimes". We will focus in particular on the following issues: the concept and definition of genocide (How does genocide differ from mass murder? What is genocidal intent? What is a people for the purposes?); cases of genocide past and present (Philippines, Namibia, Armenians, Cambodia, Former Yugoslavia, Rwanda, Syria, Myanmar,...); radical evil; ideologies of dehumanization; international prosecution of genocide; genocide as justification/pretense for the use of force. Special emphasis will be laid on the exchange of philosophical and legal perspectives
