Genocide, Mass Atrocities

Genocide Watch 
The International Alliance to End Genocide
Exists to predict, prevent, stop, and punish genocide and other forms of mass murder. We seek to raise awareness and influence public policy concerning potential and actual genocide. Our purpose is to build an international movement to prevent and stop genocide.

The Holocaust and the United Nations Outreach Programme
The Holocaust and the United Nations Outreach Programme seeks to remind the world of the lessons to be learnt from the Holocaust in order to help to prevent future acts of genocide.
The Atrocity Archives
BBC World Service
The wife of Guatemala's human rights ombudsman was kidnapped, held for 14 hours, and beaten. Just a day after the release of a report into police atrocities during the country's 36 year long civil war.

It is being viewed as a warning to those behind the release of the first batch of the 80 million documents discovered four years ago in an abandoned warehouse.

The documents contain evidence of police involvement in tens of thousands of kidnappings, forced disappearances, and extra-judicial killings.

DEMOCIDE: Murder by Government
Governments have murdered hundreds of millions of their citizens and those under their control. The questions are, then, how is this democide defined, is genocide included, how many have been killed, how do we find this out, and what sources can be used?

This is Filip Spagnoli’s blog about human rights – including political and economic rights such as the right to participate in government (democracy being a subset of human rights) and the right not to suffer poverty – from the perspective of politics, art, philosophy (hence p.a.p.), law, economics, statistics, psychology etc.
