1. 26. Role Expectations as Motivators of Mass Violence Perpetration : A Normative Approach to Understanding Perpetrator Behaviour During the Yugoslav Wars from 1991–1995

   Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Hugo Valentin-centrum

   Författare :Otilia Rehnström; [2023]
   Nyckelord :Yugoslav Wars 1991-1995; Perpetrator behaviour; role expectations; social norms; role strain; role conflict;

   Sammanfattning : The enduring question of why apparently ordinary individuals participate in the systemic perpetration of mass violence hallmarks genocide studies, and it arose yet again when the multifarious atrocities faced by civilians in the Yugoslav Wars of 1991–1995 were apparent. With explanations resting on notions of “ancient hatreds” having been denounced in favour of ones that emphasise the role of emotions like fear and resentment, ethnic myths and symbols, and competition on group and individual levels of society, there remains some issues with these approaches; they cannot account for what motivates variations in behaviour by on-the-ground perpetrators nor can they describe the process by which violence develops in tandem on micro- and meso-levels, while still accommodating macro-level causes for conflict.

   Sammanfattning : Segregation är ett samhällsproblem som är en av Sveriges största utmaningar, där stadsdelar med socioekonomiska utmaningar har ökat i Sverige och återfinns i de flesta av Sveriges kommuner. Stadsdelar med socioekonomiska utmaningar karaktäriseras inte sällan av faktorer som påverkar tryggheten, och en majoritet av invånarna i dessa stadsdelar tenderar att känna sig extra utsatta och otrygga i samhället, inte minst barn och unga.
