In this Conflict, Confrontation and Justice research seminar, organised in collaboration with the UCL Centre for Collective Violence, Holocaust and Genocide Studies, Dr Kieran Mitton (King's College London) and Franziska Anna Karpinski (Loughborough University) will consider perpetrators of mass violence in different geographical, historical, and political contexts from multiple disciplinary perspectives in the context of Sierra Leone's civil war and the Holocaust. Offering a global, comparative view of perpetrators' motivations and behaviours, and the role played by emotions and values, the papers will raise challenging questions of guilt and responsibility, race, ethnicity and gender, and the legacies of mass violence.
