SUMMARY:Genocide - Contemporary philosophical and sociological perspectives
UID:20260613T221305Z-iCalPlugin-Grails@philevents-web-bd7db559-gt5qm
TZID:Europe/Berlin
LOCATION:Am Neuen Palais 10\, Potsdam\, Germany\, 14469
DESCRIPTION:<p>Over the last two decades\, the phenomenon of genocide has been the object of increasing philosophical and sociological re&shy\;search. Regret&shy\;tably\, the results of this trend on either side re&shy\;mained all too often within the con&shy\;finements of their respective departments and did spark just sporadic mu&shy\;tual reception. How&shy\;ever\, philosophy and sociology clearly could com&shy\;plement each other to further develop and explore the concept of genocide the&shy\;oretically. Similar arguments and perspectives are covered in so&shy\;cial philosophy\, political philosophy\, ontology\, conflict theory\, political sociology\, and gender theory. Common questions are: What constitutes a group? Why and how do groups resort to geno&shy\;cide? How does genocide differ from other forms of political viol&shy\;ence and other &ldquo\;-cides&rdquo\;? What is the harm in destroying a group by means of genocidal acts? How can a gender perspective bring forth the field of genocide studies? What is the connection between historical reflections on genocide and philosophical/soci&shy\;ological insights of it? The workshop addresses these questions above from a contem&shy\;porary perspective while also discussing the limits of theorizing about geno&shy\;cide in philosophy and sociology.</p>
