▼ This thesis argues that three successive generations of prosecutors—each of whom at some moment in time belong to a major institution designed specifically to enforce international criminal law—are best understood as agents of the law, politics and war. By examining the relevant institutional arrangements, including formal prosecutorial mandates, the thesis recognises that these prosecutors play vital roles in the enforcement of international criminal law. By critically examining prosecutorial performance during the pre-trial and trial phases this thesis contends, firstly, that these prosecutors are also political actors serving, unwittingly or otherwise, in the interests of economic liberalisation, expressed as neo-capitalism during the middle of the twentieth century or as neoliberalism in the late twentieth century. By foregrounding the material and ideational conditions giving rise to those major enforcement institutions this thesis contends, secondly, that international prosecutors also help wage a mostly silent and largely unacknowledged war fought by proponents of various utopian movements. In order to support these two main contentions the thesis situates the development of international criminal law and its major institutions as a significant temporality of a discourse against politico-cruelty, a term used here to refer to cruel acts committed as a means of achieving some substantive end. It also contextualises the collective prosecutorial efforts within the project of modernity and, more specifically, what is described here as a politico-cultural civil war fought for control over that project. Using international criminal law as a means of confronting humanity’s worst excesses and curbing modernity’s most violent pathologies, international prosecutors of war crimes, crimes against humanity, crimes of genocide and crimes of aggression might represent the vanguard in the quest for international criminal justice and be regarded by many as featuring among humanity’s better angels. Indeed, they might well be characterised in world affairs as chief amongst the angels. But, at the same time, these politico-legal actors, whose mandates are derived from, and re-inscribe, particular configurations of power emerging in the aftermath of global conflict, need to be recognised as the auxiliary combatants of those seeking to maintain their control over the modernist project.

▼ Recent philosophical research on normativity has clarified the nature and dynamics of social norms. Social norms are distinguished from legal and moral norms on the basis of their scope, their grounds, their characteristic forms of accountability, or some combination of these features. Because of their distinct character, social norms can reinforce practical prescriptions, prohibitions, and permissions provided to particular actors by legal or moral norms. They also can conflict drastically with those prescriptions, prohibitions, and permissions – resulting in serious practical dilemmas. The identification of normative principles capable of resolving practical dilemmas arising from conflicts between different kinds of norms is a major aim of contemporary moral and political philosophy. This dissertation contributes to this aim by establishing the significance of conflicts between social norms and legal or moral norms during mass atrocities and liberalizing political transitions. The dissertation argues that social norms, and changes in social norms, are critical components of accurate descriptions and responsible evaluations – both legal and moral – of the actions of individuals and groups before, during, and after mass atrocities. The dissertation contends, further, that distinct principles of justice may apply to transitional efforts by non-state actors to transform social norms in societies recovering from large-scale crimes. Three principal results follow from this dissertation’s effort to integrate the conceptual framework of social norms into the study of mass atrocity. First, the dissertation clarifies and extends the historiographical thesis of norm transformation, according to which participation by ordinary individuals in mass atrocities is at least partially explained by transformations in basic norms that structure social and political life. Second, the dissertation identifies a novel basis on which to apportion legal and moral accountability for mass atrocities between individuals and groups or collectivities – i.e. on the basis of the specific contributions of social norms. Third, the dissertation provides new support for the disputed claim that distinct principles of justice apply to the various actors involved in liberalizing political transitions.

▼ Since 1998 there has been a dramatic increase in the numbers of paid, additional, support staff, employed in Scottish primary schools as successive Scottish governments have attempted to raise standards by freeing teachers from administrative and ‘housekeeping’ duties and allowing them to teach. Of these additional staff, currently just over 4000 are classroom assistants, with a remit to provide general class learning and teaching support, including social inclusion and pupil discipline, under the direction of a fully registered teacher. Classroom assistants in Scotland are almost exclusively White women, typically aged 31-50, but concentrated in the 41-50 age range, partnered and with children of school age. These women exist on the margins of school hierarchies as witnessed by short-term contracts, low pay, limited access to formal training and low status. Nevertheless, many classroom assistants seem willing to accept poor working conditions as a trade off for family friendly working hours. Given these working conditions the study sought to consider several key questions: • Why are classroom assistants willing to undertake work that has low status, low pay and insecurity? • How do classroom assistants create and maintain a sense of integrity and commitment to their work? • How do classroom assistants create and sustain positive social and professional identities in this context? • Why do classroom assistants appear to be complicit, to some extent, in their own oppression? To achieve this the study used a critical ethnographic methods to explore the lived experiences of 13 classroom assistants as they supported pupils in two Scottish primary schools. The key insights were firstly that a Bourdieuian account of class, combined with an understanding of patriarchy, provided an explanation of these women’s labour market decisions. In addition, ‘preference theory’, was rejected in favour of a range of constraints, particularly having children and the associated childcare costs, that were considered much more important factors. Secondly, classroom assistants performed versions of ‘emphasised femininity’ as part of their identity as ‘classroom assistants’. Thirdly, the notion of ‘respectability’ was a crucial analytical tool in explaining not only these women’s constant struggle for recognition, but also their continuing oppression. And finally, classroom assistants told a particular type of talk, the ‘atrocity story’, which contributed to the social production of occupational boundaries. The study concluded that from their position of insecure and poorly paid employment, classroom assistants justified and reconciled their position by drawing on talk of moral superiority associated with mothering and caring to construct and perform identities that created the spaces and boundaries from which they positioned themselves as superior to both parents and teachers. As a result they were able to negotiate their roles within the micro-political world of the school.

▼ This project is embedded within Max Weber’s 1910 call to study the press while taking his message to a region of the world that is often studied within sociology for what it lacks rather than as one engaging in activities that could be considered on their merit. With few exceptions, sociology has approached sub-Saharan Africa as a space that is paradigmatic of incompleteness and beset by continual setbacks. By and large, sociological scholarship on knowledge production is still constrained by coloniality, which leads to a privileging of western organizations’ construction of knowledge while treating knowledge production by organizations in Africa as ephemeral. The result of this imbalance is that we know more about how the New York Times and Washington Post covered Rwanda and Darfur than how Kenya’s The Daily Nation represented either atrocity. Because sociology has been mostly silent on how countries neighboring Darfur covered the atrocity, there is an implicit message that African fields are not part of the ‘global’ in the same way fields in the global north are. To analyze how African media fields construct knowledge about mass atrocity, this dissertation project is based on a content analysis of every single news article on Darfur from Kenya, South Africa and Rwanda published between 1st of January 2003 and 31st December 2008. Results from this content analysis are used to provide overarching themes of how Darfur was represented in these three countries. Although these data suggest convergence in how Darfur was framed by media fields analyzed here - and those from the global north examined by Joachim Savelsberg- this project’s focus on by-lines to differentiate articles by African journalists from those lifted from wire agencies provides a level of nuance hither missing. While the content analysis offers macro-level evidence for how Darfur was covered, it is sufficient in explaining why and how African media fields employ these frames. To provide this explanation, journalist interviews were conducted in Kenya, South Africa, and Nigeria from the summer of 2012 to the summer of 2015. These interviews were conducted in Nairobi, Mombasa, Johannesburg, and Lagos. All except three were conducted face to face and the three over the phone. Overall, findings suggest that, although African journalists and scholars are often critical of the use of the ethnic conflict frame as reliant on colonial tropes, arguing that it de-contextualizes and de-politicizes atrocities, they used this frame relatively frequently. Further, although most of the sources quoted were Sudanese state actors, non-Sudanese African sources were marginalized by both wire agencies and African journalists. Sources from the United States and the United Kingdom played a more prominent role in influencing narratives about Darfur in the countries studied here. African media fields are primary narrative constructors of the atrocities in Darfur for African audiences. Being African conspires to produce a condition of invisibility and erasure of African…

This thesis examines the role aesthetic considerations play in the development of shared social and legal understandings of genocide, crimes against humanity, and war crimes. Utilizing a social constructivist, interactional legal theory analytical framework, I argue that aesthetic considerations play a major role in identifying these international crimes. The “visibility politics” resulting from this heavy reliance on aesthetic factors in turn, influence social interactions through which shared understandings of these crimes are developed, resulting in shared understandings of genocide, crimes against humanity, and war crimes being embedded in a particular aesthetic model of atrocity. According to this model, atrocity crimes are expected to manifest themselves as familiar spectacles of violence and abuse that are both shocking and intuitively “criminal” in nature. While at first glance, this understanding may appear to merely reflect the extraordinary scale of atrocity crimes themselves, the notion that such crimes will necessarily manifest themselves according to this aesthetic model ignores the complexities of mass harm causation, and the substance of international criminal law (ICL). Chapter one, combining insights from interactional legal theory and the field of neuroaesthetics, theorizes ICL as an environment conducive to aesthetic considerations influencing relevant norm development processes. Chapter two, through an analysis of how the language of atrocity is deployed within ICL discourses, argues that shared understandings of atrocity crimes are grounded in an aesthetic model of atrocities as familiar spectacles of violence and abuse. Chapter three demonstrates that this aesthetic model fails to account for the complexity of real-world atrocity situations and the wide variety of means through which genocide, crimes against humanity, and war crimes may be committed. Chapter four examines how visibility politics have shaped social and legal understandings of processes of mass killing and abuse in Khmer Rouge era Cambodia and elsewhere. Chapter five argues that visibility politics undermine the aims of ICL and negatively influence historical memory and the distribution of human rights, transitional justice, and peacebuilding resources. Chapter six, returning to interactional legal theory, argues that the visibility politics of ICL also impair the legality legitimacy of ICL itself, by undermining ICL’s adherence in practice to interactionalism’s criteria of legality.

▼ Many scholars and observers who watched the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia (ICTY) dispensing punishment for perpetrators of atrocity crimes decried what they saw as the handing down of lenient sentences for some of the most grave crimes under international law. A significant body of literature has challenged the legitimacy of the Tribunal’s exercise of power in relation to this aspect of its operations. Yet, far less scrutiny has occurred in relation to another aspect of the Tribunal’s operations: the premature termination of these widely perceived lenient sentences, whereby perpetrators escape one-third of their punishment. The majority of the perpetrators convicted of atrocity crimes (54 of the 90 sentenced) were granted Unconditional Early Release (UER) by the President of the Tribunal and were thus “free as a bird” upon release. In contrast to the widespread national practice in relation to perpetrators of serious crimes released early on probation, on parole or on conditional release, perpetrators of atrocity crimes were often treated more generously, as they were released unconditionally. They were free to return to the crime scene and meet their victims, free to be greeted as heroes by welcoming crowds of supporters. These scenarios prima facie were an injustice to victims and potentially had societal consequences as perpetrators returned to Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH), an ethnically-divided, post-conflict country and said they would be “happy to do it all again”. This thesis seeks to understand the causes and consequences of UER. It did so through a legitimacy framing – examining the extent to which this practice was perceived as legitimate by various groups of stakeholders and determining whether it had an overall impact on the legitimacy of the Tribunal. It has done so primarily through a legal empirical analysis of the Tribunal Presidents’ early release decisions, and through 69 semi-structured interviews with inside stakeholders from the Tribunal, outside stakeholders in BiH, and one other international judge. On this basis, the thesis concludes that the Tribunal’s grant of UER lacks both in terms of normative and sociological legitimacy. Nevertheless, despite this legitimacy deficit, UER has not delegitimised the Tribunal overall, rather, it has left a “blackspot” on its legacy. This thesis explains why.

O Dark Tourism representa uma extensão do turismo cultural, uma vez que surgiu a necessidade de inovar essa tipologia, por se observar uma diminuição na procura. Essa alteração verificou-se ao nível da experiência turística, ou seja, procurou-se através da experiência, proporcionar momentos únicos ao nível cultural, para que voltasse a ser opção para um maior número de turistas. Este turismo classifica-se pela procura de locais onde outrora ocorreram catástrofes, sofrimento e morte, de modo a satisfazer a curiosidade de quem sobreviveu. São considerados locais de Dark Tourism os campos de concentração, estabelecimentos prisionais inativos, casas de serial killers, cemitérios, e todos os restantes locais que se encaixem nos padrões de morte, tragédia e sofrimento. Em Portugal existem alguns locais associados à prática de Dark Tourism, embora este ainda não esteja suficientemente explorado. Foi definido como objetivo principal desta investigação a avaliação da potencialidade do Dark Tourism como temática em si mesma, aplicada ao destino Porto. Em resultado deste objetivo principal, são apresentados três objetivos parciais, aos quais se associam as hipóteses de investigação: Comprovar, através deste estudo, a existência de um nicho de mercado, no Porto, associado ao Dark Tourism; Perceber em que medida a cidade do Porto dispõe de recursos turísticos e procura turística, capazes de desenvolver uma experiência turística no âmbito do Dark Tourism; Sensibilizar as entidades gestoras do Destino Porto (DMO’s) para a oportunidade deste mercado. Foram aplicados 178 questionários a turistas/visitantes na cidade do Porto. Face aos resultados obtidos podemos concluir que foi possível confirmar algumas hipóteses, variáveis e domínios propostos.

Dark Tourism represents an extension of cultural tourism, since it was necessary to innovate this typology because it was having some breaks in demand. This change was verified in the level of the tourist experience, that is, it was tried through the experience, to provide unique moments in the cultural level, so that it returned to be the option for a greater number of tourists. This tourism is classified by the search of places where once catastrophes, suffering and death occurred, in order to satisfy the curiosity of those who survived. Dark Tourism sites include concentration camps, inactive prisons, serial killers, cemeteries, and all other venues that meet the standards of death, tragedy and suffering. In Portugal there are some sites associated with the practice of Dark Tourism, although this is not yet sufficiently explored. It was defined as the main objective of this investigation the evaluation of the potential of Dark Tourism as a theme in itself, applied to the destination of Porto. As a result of this main objective, three partial objectives are presented, to which the research hypotheses are associated: To prove, through this study, the existence of a market niche in Porto associated to Dark Tourism; To understand to what extent the city of Porto has tourism resources and…

▼ This thesis is an exploration of the concept of evil. It attempts to define what we mean by this elusive concept and its relevance to human behaviour. The thesis then develops an operational definition of evil that is distilled from the writings of various social scientists. The thesis argues, however, that in addition to merely defining evil, there are three emotive elements that also go towards our preparedness to label an act as evil. The thesis then examines the causes of evil acts. The thesis argues that the interactive causation, of situation and disposition, is the most robust explanation of evil acts. The thesis rejects the notion of the evil person, instead arguing that it is ordinary people who commit evil acts. The thesis then examines the causes of genocide, the most evil of acts, and links this back to the previous discussion of causal factors of evil acts. Germany's war against the Soviet Union in World War II, in particular the role of the Waffen-SS is then discussed. The death and destruction during this conflict would result not just from military operations, but also from the systematic killing and abuse that the Waffen-SS directed against Jews, Communists and ordinary citizens. The thesis then utilises the case study of the Waffen-SS to highlight the application of the interactive causation explanation in regards to evil acts. The conventional wisdom that the Waffen-SS in WWII fought a relatively clean fight, unsullied by the atrocities committed by the Nazis, is challenged – and largely demolished. Focusing on the Eastern Front, the thesis contends that the Nazi vision of a racial-ideological death struggle against Slavic hordes and their Jewish-Bolshevik commissars resonated with soldiers of the Waffen-SS, steeped in traditional anti-Semitic and racist dogmas. In doing so the thesis clearly shows that the Waffen-SS was an organisation that committed widespread atrocities. The thesis then applies the operational definition of evil to the case study and determines that the acts committed by the Waffen-SS were in fact evil. It also contends that the concept of evil is useful in explaining human atrocity. In conducting this examination the thesis provides some insight into the challenges facing society from preventing future broad-scale acts of evil.

▼ This thesis is an exploration of the concept of evil. It attempts to define what we mean by this elusive concept and its relevance to human behaviour. The thesis then develops an operational definition of evil that is distilled from the writings of various social scientists. The thesis argues, however, that in addition to merely defining evil, there are three emotive elements that also go towards our preparedness to label an act as evil. The thesis then examines the causes of evil acts. The thesis argues that the interactive causation, of situation and disposition, is the most robust explanation of evil acts. The thesis rejects the notion of the evil person, instead arguing that it is ordinary people who commit evil acts. The thesis then examines the causes of genocide, the most evil of acts, and links this back to the previous discussion of causal factors of evil acts. Germany’s war against the Soviet Union in World War II, in particular the role of the Waffen-SS is then discussed. The death and destruction during this conflict would result not just from military operations, but also from the systematic killing and abuse that the Waffen-SS directed against Jews, Communists and ordinary citizens. The thesis then utilises the case study of the Waffen-SS to highlight the application of the interactive causation explanation in regards to evil acts. The conventional wisdom that the Waffen-SS in WWII fought a relatively clean fight, unsullied by the atrocities committed by the Nazis, is challenged—and largely demolished. Focusing on the Eastern Front, the thesis contends that the Nazi vision of a racial-ideological death struggle against Slavic hordes and their Jewish-Bolshevik commissars resonated with soldiers of the Waffen-SS, steeped in traditional anti-Semitic and racist dogmas. In doing so the thesis clearly shows that the Waffen-SS was an organisation that committed widespread atrocities. The thesis then applies the operational definition of evil to the case study and determines that the acts committed by the Waffen-SS were in fact evil. It also contends that the concept of evil is useful in explaining human atrocity. In conducting this examination the thesis provides some insight into the challenges facing society from preventing future broad-scale acts of evil.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: From the international criminal law perspective, unlike the national law perspective, the principle of corporate criminal responsibility is not defined neither does the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court (ICC) of 1998 provide for it. Therefore, currently, the ICC has no jurisdiction over legal persons. It is the argument of this dissertation that legal persons can commit atrocities. The exclusion of corporate criminal responsibility from the jurisdiction of the ICC undermines the preventative measures that are aimed at putting an end to impunity for atrocity crimes under international criminal law. Further that the exclusion of corporate criminal liability has potential to create unnecessary dissonance between the jurisprudence of the ICC and that of domestic courts. The premise for advancing the corporate criminal responsibility, among others, includes: first, that prosecuting and punishing corporations for international crimes (attributing criminal liability to corporations) would enhance the deterrence theory anticipated by the Rome Statute, thereby supplementing the principle of individual criminal responsibility. Second, it is trite law that corporations are at law construed as juristic persons vested with rights and obligations. Therefore, these legal realities, outweighs the corporations’ perceived lack of capacity to commit international crimes. Finally, evidenced by a series of human rights violations by corporations, there is a watertight case to argue that corporations are capable of being more complicit in the commission of core crimes than is currently assumed.

AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Vanuit die perspektief van die internasionale strafreg, anders as die nasionale regsperspektief, word die beginsel van korporatiewe strafregtelike verantwoordelikheid nie algemeen erken nie, en die Rome Statuut van die Internasionale Strafhof (ISH) van 1998 maak ook nie daarvoor voorsiening nie. Daarom het die ISH tans geen jurisdiksie oor regspersone nie. Hierdie verhandeling argumenteer dat regspersone gruweldade kan pleeg. Die uitsluiting van korporatiewe strafregtelike verantwoordelikheid van die jurisdiksie van die ISH ondermyn die voorkomende maatreëls wat ten doel het om straffeloosheid vir gruwelmisdade onder internasional reg te beëindig. Verder het die uitsluiting van korporatiewe strafregtelike verantwoordelikheid die potensiaal om onnodige onenigheid tussen die regspraak van die ISH en dié van nasionale howe te skep. Die uitgangspunt vir die bevordering van korporatiewe strafregtelike verantwoordelikheid sluit in, onder andere: eerstens, dat die vervolging en strafoplegging van korporasies vir internasionale misdade (die toeskryf van strafregtelike aanspreeklikheid aan korporasies) die vooropgestelde afskrikkingsteorie van die Rome Statuut sal versterk, en sodoende die beginsel van individuele stragregtelike verantwoordelikheid sal aanvul. Tweedens, dit is ‘n gevestigde regsbeginsel dat korporasies as regspersone met regte en verpligtinge beskou word. Hierdie regsrealiteite…

Die Arbeit befasst sich mit dem Dokumentar- und Atrocity Film „German Concentration Camps Factual Survey“ (GCCFS). Die Forschungsfrage, die die Arbeit begleitet und auf einer theoretischen Ebene beantwortet werden soll, lautet: Wie erzählen und wirken die Bilder von GCCFS heute im Gegensatz zu damals? Im ersten Arbeitsfeld steht die Geschichte der Dokumentation im Mittelpunkt, und wie sich diese im Laufe von neunundsechzig Jahren bis zur ihrer Fertigstellung entwickelt hat. Das daraus resultierende Ergebnis zeigt auf, dass GCCFS eine besondere Art der begleitenden Reflexion in Zusammenarbeit mit dem Publikum aufweist und kreiert, wodurch der Zuschauerschaft eine geeignete Kontextualisierung und Reflexion ermöglicht wird. Das zweite Feld der Arbeit behandelt die Frage nach dem Realismus innerhalb der Bilder von GCCFS. Infolge dieser Diskussion stellt sich punktuell heraus, dass sich der Realismus dieser Bilder nicht nur aus ihrer Bildlichkeit heraus entwickelt, sondern auch aus einer dramaturgischen Stimmigkeit zwischen der inneren und äußeren Realität, die zum Teil bewusst mit einer Fiktionalität arbeitet. Es stellt sich aber heraus, dass die Fiktionalität durch die Aussage bestimmter Geschehnisse auf ein Mindestmaß zurückgedrängt wird. Der letzte Teil der Arbeit befasst sich mit der intensiven filmanalytischen Auseinandersetzung der Dokumentation, und der Thematisierung des sozialen und medialen Gedächtnisses. Diese Diskussion führt schlussendlich zu dem Resümee, dass die Dokumentation durch ihre Medialität einen mumifizierten erzählenden Zeitzeugen kreiert, mit dem ein gegenwärtiges und zukünftiges Publikum arbeiten kann. Die Erzählform und Wirkung der Bilder der Dokumentation von GCCFS baut somit eine Vermittlungs-Instanz in der gegenwärtigen Zeit auf, die einen nicht zeitbezogenen Rezeptionswert aufweist.

The thesis deals with the documentary and Atrocity Picture "German Concentration Camps Factual Survey" (GCCFS). The main research question to be addressed in this thesis on a theoretical level is: How exactly do the images of German Concentration Camps Factual Survey narrate and effect the audience? The first part of the thesis focuses on the history of the documentary and how it has developed over the course of sixty-nine years until its completion. The first conclusion shows that GCCFS exhibits and creates a special kind of narration, allowing today an appropriate contextualization and reflection of the topic of labour, concentration, and extermination camps also to the audience. The second part of the thesis deals with the question of realism within the images of GCCFS. The analysis showed that the realism of these atrocity images is not only evolving from their imagery, but also from a dramaturgical coherence between the inner and outer reality, which consciously works with a fragment of fictionality. This fragment, however, is pushed back by the statement of certain events. The last part of the paper deals with the analysis of the documentary and its relationship to collective and mediatised memory of…

▼ This project looks at the Abu Ghraib Prisoner Abuse Scandal and the ways those figured in the notorious images were named as "bad apples" to explain the shocking scenes to a mainstream American collective as well as expands more traditional understandings of witnessing through the examination of this complex moment. Beyond the narrowly legal and political issues, the photographs from Abu Ghraib also raise questions about how images of atrocities are received, interpreted, and contested with this project rephrasing the question "what do we see when we look at the images from Abu Ghraib?" to that of "what did we witness?" In the case of Abu Ghraib, technology enabled the abuses at Abu Ghraib Prison to be documented, the result being the now infamous photos. However, these images quickly became a site of fierce debate: were we witnessing something anomalous or getting a glimpse of something deeply disturbing about America itself? Varying interpretations have prevailed, and the project explores three of these interpretations: that of Specialist Sabrina Harman, a primary witness attempting to "bear witness" in the classical sense of the term; the Taguba report, complied before the scandal and argues that the images merely captured the result of policies fostering an "anything goes" post-9/11 environment related to prisoner treatment; and the Schlesinger Report, commissioned by the Department of Defense, that became the "official" version whose interpretation is still held by many people. The predominant issue of the study asks, how was the Schlesinger Report able to recast events in this way, and why was it so quickly accepted? The rhetorical analysis unpacks the harnessing of visual rhetoric and discourse to reveal the deft construction of a plausible mainstream understanding of this highly disconcerting instance. By consequence, the naming the scenes captured in the notorious photographs as the work of "bad apples" rescued America's "exceptionalism" at the brink of it being critically called into question as the tethering of a "bad apples" moniker to the infamous pictures forestalled the potential of a national – and perhaps global – sociopolitical crisis, thereby emerging as the most viable alternative at that historical juncture.

▼ This thesis asks two central questions: (1.) Is there a link between atrocities committed during American counterinsurgency campaigns and race? (2.) Is there continuity between the counterinsurgency techniques deployed in the Philippines and in Iraq in this respect? In an effort to answer these questions I propose to briefly outline the chapters which are to follow. In Chapter 1 I propose to tackle the question of race using the following questions as broad guides to my investigation: what is it? how do we understand it? how will it be operationalized? In other words, this first chapter serves both as a literature review and an outline of the theoretical framework to be adopted in the later sections of this thesis. It outlines the current state of the concept ‘race’ in the literature of various fields of politics with an eye to finding space for a critical approach. In the end, I settle on the elegant framework set forth by Roxanne Lynn Doty. In Chapter 2, carrying forward Doty’s operationalized concept of race, I undertake an analysis of the discourse and practice surrounding American Counterinsurgency Policy during the invasion of the Philippines from 1899-1903. First; I investigate the role that racialized discourse played in the domestic and international contexts surrounding the invasion of the Philippines. Second; I delve into the empirical historical record to attempt to sketch out how racism was deployed on the ground in the counterinsurgency in the Philippines and what relationship the acts of atrocity committed there had with racial discourse. Following the findings of Chapter 2 I attempt to investigate the extent to which these mechanisms existed in the counterinsurgency in Iraq in Chapter 3. The investigation of Iraq is structured similarly to that of the Philippines but, due to the absolute abundance of information on Iraq, it is broken into three sections. The first section examines the role of race in the 2 domestic politics of the United States before, during, and after September 11, 2001. The second section sketches out an emerging international logic concerning military intervention and development. The final section sketches out the empirical reality of how race was used in atrocity in Iraq.

▼ Recently, philosophers have charged that Aristotelian-based virtue theories are empirically inadequate because the conception of character in which they are grounded is largely unfounded by findings in psychology. These philosophers argue in favor of situationism, the theory from social psychology that situational rather than dispositional differences among individuals are in large part responsible for human behavior. Situationists dispute the existence of traits that remain consistent across time and diverse situations and argue that features of situations can better explain and predict human behavior. After analyzing the psychological literature and historical cases put forth as evidence for situationism as well as the basic premises grounding arguments against situationism, I make some conclusions about the best responses to situationism. I agree with situationists that Aristotelian-based virtue and character are not quite empirically adequate but disagree that human behavior owes more to situational rather than dispositional determinants. Basing my theory on literature from social psychology, I argue instead that a concept of character grounded in social-cognitive theory is more psychologically realistic and can explain and predict human behavior and ground a character-based virtue theory. A social-cognitive conception of character would highlight the dynamic role between situations and individual psychological factors like beliefs, values, desires and the way that an individual perceives a situation. I sketch out a non-ideal theory of virtue based in a social-cognitive conception of character that is partially dependent on social networks for its maintenance and is fragmented, or contextualized to particular types of psychological situations. However, fragmented and socially dependent virtue is not an optimal type of virtue because it is vulnerable to situational features that place strong psychological pressures on agents to behave in various ways, including ways they would not have normally endorsed. I agree with Aristotelian virtue ethicists that argue that a type of practical wisdom can help to counter the often unwanted and dangerous influence of these strong situations but also maintain that some measure of moral luck is inevitably involved, even in the development of practical wisdom.
