Seminar paper from the year 2006 in the subject Social Studies (General), University of Technology, Sydney, course: Genocide Studies, language: English, abstract: Different types of genocide victimise different groups of the'others'. The process of dehumanising, objectifying and giving the perpetrators a victim hood varies a lot. Something all genocide have in common besides the fact that people are victimised, might be: There are people responsible for the genocide. This essay tries to analyse the different levels of responsibility and will provide answers by looking at different type of genocide and several stages within different genocide. But first it seems to be useful to discuss what responsibility is and how to distinguish between different levels and components. Furthermore it will be discussed the boarder between legal and moral responsibility.
