How Genocides End

The ending of genocide has been treated in a normative manner—-how it “ought” to end, as opposed to how, empirically, historical and contemporary episodes of genocide have come to an end. Since 2005, the SSRC has hosted a series of academic seminars as well as a Web forum examining genocide in an empirical way, which have helped to take the field of genocide studies in a new direction. Working closely with the UN and African Union peace and security departments, additional seminars and detailed research studies are planned.
