1. Människooffer i järnålderns mossar : En analys av mänskliga kvarlevor från nordiska våtmarker
Kandidat-uppsats, Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för kulturvetenskaper (KV)Sammanfattning : Studies of human sacrifice during the Iron Age in the Nordic countries have long been based on historical literary sources.

This is because of the difficulty in detecting injuries on human bones that can be linked to lethal violence. LÄS MER

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

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.
