SUMMARY:Genocide and the Ocean: Conceptualising their Relationship
DESCRIPTION:Online meeting – Click to join us on Teams. \nWhat is the relationship between genocide and the ocean? This question invites critical inquiry into what it is we talk about when we talk about ‘genocide.’ On one level\, genocide is a narrow and technical issue of international law that imposes liability for violence undertaken with the ‘specific intent’ to destroy a racial\, religious\, or national group in whole or in part. On another level\, genocide is broadly invoked in moral and political discourse as the supreme act of human evil. In other words\, contrary to existing international legal doctrine\, genocide occupies the popular imagination as a ‘crime of crimes’ placed at the very top of an asserted hierarchy of harm. Recognising this multi-faceted deployment as an embedded feature of genocide discourse\, the aim of this workshop is to explore where exactly the ocean fits within this scheme\, especially considering the myriad of ways in which the ocean and oceanic forces can end and/or degrade human life on a brutally massive scale. \nItinerary\n10am – Welcoming Remarks – Eric Loefflad (University of Kent) and Vicky Kapogianni (University of Reading) \n10:15am Opening Address – Eric Loefflad – Otto Kranzbühler in the Bab el-Mandeb Strait: Nuremberg\, Yemen\, and Universal Justice in a World of Maritime Hegemony \n10:45 – Panel 1: Migration\nModerator – Vicky Kapogianni \n*Fatima Mehmood (Universal College Lahore) – The Nexus of Non-Refoulement and Genocide: Exploring Erga Omnes Parties Obligations Owed to Sea Refugees \n*Regina Palouse (Common Good Foundation) – Genocide beyond Borders?
