Isi artikel

This article is an exploration of two different instances of genocide of the late 20th century—the mass rape of women in Bosnia-Herzegovina in 1992 (in which women constituted the primary victims) and the genocide of the Tutsi in Rwanda in 1994 (in which women were active perpetrators). The connected objectives of the article are, first, to consider the relationship between genocide and other forms of social exclusion and, second, to explore the limits of some forms of criminological commonsense, for example in the field of victimology, and these contemporary instances of genocide. The article then concludes with an assessment of the different analytical approaches to what Zygmunt Bauman calls 'the social production of immorality'.
