HIST232 - Mass violence in the 20th century and beyond ... / HANDBOOK / 2012-13

GENERAL INFORMATION > WHAT IS THE MODULE ABOUT? Mass violence has sullied the register of the twentieth century. In the colonies, across the battlefields of the two world wars, under totalitarian regimes or in the midst of bitter civil wars, mass violence has been a taboo broken on so many occasions with devastating and lasting consequences. The module examines the factors that shape the potential for mass violence in the longer term and the forces that help unleash it in particular spaces and moments in time. Why and how is the taboo of (mass) violence broken? Who are the 'perpetrators' and why do they inflict violence on others even if they are aware of its transgressive character? What is the role of leaders and 'ordinary people' in the discharge of violence? Can mass violence be effectively prevented? Within a broadly historical framework of analysis, the module examines comparatively in which circumstances nationalism, memory, and prejudice (religious, ethnic, ‘racial’) resulted in devastating instances of mass violence, perpetrated by states, its various organisations, military and para-military forces, dissident groups, and above all ‘ordinary people’. Emphasis will be placed on two elements: •

theoretical approaches to mass violence (long- and short-term factors, catalysts, facilitation, diffusion, the psychology and role of perpetrators and bystanders, justice); and discussion of selected case studies from across the world (protracted campaigns of mass violence, such as the Nazi ‘Final Solution’ and the Rwandan genocide; smallerscale incidents, such as particular massacres; and specific spaces dedicated to mass violence, such as torture camps and prisons).

Extensive use of audio-visual material (documentaries, podcasts, relevant films, oral and written testimonies) will be made in both lectures and workshops.

> COURSE AIMS The module aims to enable you to: • acquire knowledge of the historical origins, cultural parameters, and political context of mass violence in the twentieth century; • examine the role of key-concepts and forces (such as nationalism, prejudice, memory, modernity, facilitation) in the various instances of mass violence examined in the module; • appreciate similarities and differences between key-categories of mass violence, including the terms ‘genocide’, ‘crimes against humanity’, ‘crimes against peace’, and ‘war crimes’; • engage in comparative analysis of a range of case-studies covering the entire twentieth century as well as different parts of the world; • approach the subject of mass violence from the viewpoints of both perpetrators and victims, in order to understand the origins, motivational and facilitating factors. • develop their oral and written communication skills, in a variety of formats ranging from essaywriting and oral presentations to online blog-style self-reflection and asynchronous discussion through the module website; • develop skills that will help them to use a variety of sources and resources, including oral testimonies and films, to understand and solve problems of historical interpretation; • learn how to combine indepth study of particular historical topics with comparative insight.

> SKILLS The module aims to enable you to: • develop their oral and written communication skills, in a variety of formats ranging from essaywriting and creative (less formal) 'assignments' to online blog-style self-reflection and asynchronous discussion through the module website; • develop skills that will help them to use a variety of sources and resources, including maps, city plans, architectural drawings, photographs and newsreel, to understand and solve problems of historical interpretation; • learn how to combine indepth study of particular historical topics with comparative insight; • strengthen their analytical skills, particularly through a comparative approach that combines conceptual and empirical elements; • combine historical analysis with inter- and trans-disciplinary perspectives from sociology, political science, and psychology.

HIST232 ASSIGNMENT INFORMATION GENERAL The assignment makes up 30% of your overall assessment for the module. It is a creative, free-format piece of individual research, based on a specific case-study topic. You will receive a list of topics on Week 4 and you will be asked to make a selection online, on a first-come first-serve basis. However, if you have your own ideas about an alternative topic, please contact Aristotle to discuss it. The point of the assignment is to engage in a less conventional ‘academic’ piece of coursework, taking some liberties that are not normally expected in an essay. Here are some ideas as to how you can write your assignment, based on what former students did; the list is by no means exhaustive and you can choose to do yours differently: •

a fictional interview, with historical facts and quotes incorporated into the fictional narrative (and referenced properly);

an imaginary diary, again with facts and quotes from actual sources;

an exhibition catalogue/leaflet;

a video format (i.e. your own clip) with a separate transcript of the text; this means you need to submit both the transcript as hard copy and the video (on a DVD or via a link freely accessible online);

a newspaper/magazine article, once again based on actual sources, facts, and information referenced properly;

a more literary format (some students in the past wrote a short theatre play but again with references - this is only one example);

a mini-essay (see below).

Is it ok if I write my assignment as a mini-essay? Well, it can be if you prefer it. But the assignment gives you the opportunity to do something more unusual - a diary, a newspaper article, a letter, a video, a multimedia presentation, a court report, and anything else the you can think of - as long as the basis of the information provided in factual (I.e. you can reference original sources). But writing it as a succinct essay is also fine. An excellent mini-essay will not be treated differently from an excellent creative assignment.

What format can I use? See above - anything from a mini-essay to a fictional piece (a diary, a court transcript, an interview, an article ... anything!). Make sure that your chosen format 'works' and does what you want to achieve better than a different format. This is entirely your decision - but

6


HIST232 - Mass violence in the 20th century and beyond ... / HANDBOOK / 2012-13

I encourage you to be creative and, within reason, personal in your style of writing and presentation. Whatever format you use (whether essay-like or more creative), please make sure that you do the following: • provide references for all your sources; • observe common coursework conventions when it comes to structure (i.e. your assignment should have some kind of introduction and some kind of concluding section, in addition to the main body of the work); • if your piece is fictional (but always based on sources), add a disclaimed at the beginning of the assignment; • whatever the format and style of your writing, make sure that it is authoritative and convincing.

What is the word limit? The assignment should be around 1500 words, excluding references and bibliography. If you have good reason to go over the world limit (I.e. the extra words add substance to your piece), then do so - there will be no penalty for that. References, appendices, and diagrams do not count towards the word limit; but use them to supply extra information, not text that should be in the main body of the assignment. If you are substantially below or above the 1500-word limit (e.g. more than +/-10%), do expect a penalty.

Do I need to reference? Yes - and exhaustively so. This is the most critical formal aspect of the assignment. Even if you are creative with your assignment (I.e. you are presenting a fictional piece), you need to reference the sources that you have used. Please do so consistently (see below).

How do I reference? Check the Department’s Undergraduate Handbook for more information on referencing. The most commonly used system is footnotes or endnotes, followed by bibliography. Others prefer the Harvard (in-text) system, again followed by a bibliography at the end. You can use any system you prefer. Whether you wish to use footnotes, endnotes or in-text (Harvard) style references, please stick to one system; do not mix footnotes and endnotes, for example. Be consistent and pay attention to the conventions that apply to each system. References should provide information about the author, title, year of publication, place of publication, and relevant page numbers. For web references, the title of the document, the author (if one is mentioned) and the full URL (I.e. not just 'www.bbc.co.uk' but the whole extension) should be provided (you may add the date when the online document was accessed).

7


HIST232 - Mass violence in the 20th century and beyond ... / HANDBOOK / 2012-13

Do I need a bibliography? Yes, you do. Regardless of referencing, you need to provide a bibliography of all sources (printed and web) at the end of your assignment. Please separate books, articles, audiovisual sources (e.g. A documentary), and web resources; each category should be listed separately. Bibliographies (like appendices and references) do not count towards the word limit.

Can I add photos? Of course! Please reference their source (full URL) but you can use as many visual materials as you wish. It is entirely up to you whether you place them in-text or at the end of the assignment (as an appendix). Please number your visuals and refer to them in your text by that number.

Any requirements regarding presentation? A few - use standard formats of document for the electronic submission (Word, PDF); avoid obscure and 'esoteric' formats and, if you are using a specific piece of advanced software, remember to convert your document before submitting. For both printed and electronic versions, please allow 2.5cm margin on both left and right; this way I can write comments on the margins. You do not need to double-space your work; single or 1.5 are absolutely fine. Size 11 font as minimum (ideally 12 but this may vary from font to font; use your judgement - it should be legible but do not waste paper and money). Bibliography should be at the end of the assignment.

CHECKLIST I have referenced my sources - fully and consistently; this also applies to visual resources I have included a bibliography at the end of the assignment, separated in books, articles, audiovisual resources (if applicable), and web resources I have left 2.5cm of space on both left and right margins I have included a cover sheet with the essay (first page) I have filled a seminar self-assessment form and attached it to the assignment (last page). Form is available online but a copy will be emailed to you separately I have submitted an electronic copy of the assignment by the end of Week 10 - but only in addition to the hard copy My assignment is not substantially (I.e. by more than 100 words) less than the 1500word lower limit. For deadline and submission information, see above, p. 4.

SELECT BIBLIOGRAPHY NOTE: the titles below are given are only a fraction of the bibliography that is available on the topics of modernism, totalitarianism, urban planning, and on the particular case studies covered on the course. You will be given more specific suggestions for reading on a week-by-week basis. However, you are also expected to do your own research in addition, uncovering material available in the library or online. In addition, the more contemporary nature of the course requires you to search online resources (e.g. newspapers, NGO reports etc) simply because the published sources either do not exist or are not upto-date (e.g. in relation to an ongoing conflict). Again, you will be given more specific advice on such resources but you should also exercise your own initiative in this respect. Titles in bold indicate key and/or useful general texts.
