Foreign journalists exposed the horrors of the camps in the summer of 1992, sparking worldwide outrage. This exposure, however, did not stop the mass atrocities. Hikmet Karčić shows that the use of camps and detention facilities has been a ubiquitous practice in countless wars and genocides in order to achieve the wartime objectives of perpetrators. Although camps have been used for different strategic purposes, their essential functions are always the same: to inflict torture and lasting trauma on the victims. Torture, Humiliate, Kill develops the author's collective traumatization theory, which contends that the concentration camps set up by the Bosnian Serb authorities had the primary purpose of inflicting collective trauma on the non-Serb population of Bosnia and Herzegovina. This collective traumatization consisted of excessive use of torture, sexual abuse, humiliation, and killing. The physical and psychological suffering imposed by these methods were seen as a quick and efficient means to establish the Serb "living space." Karčić argues that this trauma was deliberately intended to deter non-Serbs from ever returning to their pre-war homes. The book centers on multiple examples of experiences at concentration camps in four towns operated by Bosnian Serbs during the war: Prijedor, Bijeljina, Višegrad, and Bileća. Chosen according to their political and geographical position, Karčić demonstrates that these camps were used as tools for the ethno-religious genocidal campaign against non-Serbs. Torture, Humiliate, Kill is a thorough and definitive resource for understanding the function and operation of camps during the Bosnian genocide."--Page 4 of cover. 542 1 |fThis work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International License |uhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 650 0 Internment camps |zBosnia and Herzegovina. 650 0 Yugoslav War, 1991-1995 |xConcentration camps |zBosnia and Herzegovina. 650 0 Yugoslav War, 1991-1995 |xAtrocities |zBosnia and Herzegovina. 650 0 Genocide |zBosnia and Herzegovina. 650 0 Torture |zBosnia and Herzegovina. 650 6 Camps d'internement |zBosnie-Herzégovine. 650 7 Torture. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01152956 650 7 Atrocities. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00820727 650 7 Genocide. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00940208 650 7 Internment camps. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst02028874 651 7 Bosnia and Herzegovina. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01212749 647 7 Yugoslav War |d(1991-1995) |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01183774 648 7 1991-1995 |2fast 852 0 |bscstacks |hDR1313.7.P74 |iK37 2022
