Unconscionable Crimes: How Norms Explain and Constrain Mass Atrocities Hardcover

Sale price$40.00

The first general theory of the influence of norms--moral, legal and social--on genocide and mass atrocity.

How can we explain--and prevent--such large-scale atrocities as the Holocaust? In Unconscionable Crimes, Paul Morrow presents the first general theory of the influence of norms--moral, legal and social--on genocide and mass atrocity. After offering a clear overview of norms and norm transformation, rooted in recent work in moral and political philosophy, Morrow examines numerous twentieth-century cases of mass atrocity, drawing on documentary and testimonial sources to illustrate the influence of norms before, during, and after such crimes.
