Randle C. Defalco

Invisible Atrocities

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book explores the ways aesthetic considerations shape how international crimes are recognized and categorized. It identifies a dominant aesthetic model of atrocities as horrific spectacles and identifies various forms of mass violence, from the enforcement of famine conditions to socio-economic oppression, that fail to conform to this model.
