In comparison to crimes against humanity and war crimes, genocide is usually considered to be the most serious and the most offensive type of a crime. In the most horrific cases, genocide pits people from neighborhood against each other (sometimes even relative against relative). In contrast to the war, where all the attacks are of a general nature and the key object of the whole battle is usually the control over a particular political or geographical region, genocide is conducted in order to attack an individual\u2019s beliefs, identity, and the object is either a total elimination or a strict control over a whole group of people.<\/p>\n<p>If you take a look at the twentieth century, you will track a sad line of genocide history, which covers:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>the famous Armenian genocide which was held in 1915 by Turks;<\/li>\n<li>the attempted extermination of the Jews, who lived on the territory of the Europe, by Nazis during the World War II;<\/li>\n<li>the extensive genocide in Cambodia that took place in 1970s;<\/li>\n<li>the \u201cethnic cleansing\u201d in 1990s in Kosovo, held by Serbs;<\/li>\n<li>the famous genocide in Rwanda, when Rwandan Hutus were killing Tutsis in 1994.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Since 1948, the representatives of the United Nations defined the genocide as the following: \u201cthe act, which is committed with the main intent \u2013 to devastate, in part or in whole, an ethnical, national, religious or racial group, such as&#8230;\u201d Actions, mentioned within the definition provided above, are the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Slaughtering members of a particular group.<\/li>\n<li>Causing terrible mental or bodily harm to the group members.<\/li>\n<li>Imposing various measures in order to prevent births within the particular religious, ethnic or national group.<\/li>\n<li>Intentionally inflicting on a group of people such conditions of life which will cause its physical destruction (of its part or of a group as a whole).<\/li>\n<li>Transferring of the children (against their will) from one group to another.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>There are 4 key characters (types) of genocide. Nonetheless, any genocide can have several characteristics at the same time.<\/p>\n<p>First type \u2013 Ideological \u2013 is committed in order to achieve a perfect structure of the society, where every member have the same beliefs and are 99.9% alike. As an example, one can mention Cambodian, Armenian, Roma\/Jews (by Nazis in Germany) and Kurdish genocide.<\/p>\n<p>Second type \u2013 Retributive \u2013 is usually undertaken by the individuals in order to eliminate a potential or a real threat. Usually this type of genocide may occur in the situation when one group of people dominates over the other and is afraid of possible rebellion. As an example, one can mention the Rwanda genocide.<\/p>\n<p>Third type \u2013 Developmental \u2013 is undertaken for economic purpose. The representatives of the government make use of this type of genocide against individuals native to the area that they are willing to use for mining, building, etc. The brightest example of developmental genocide is the Paraguay genocide.<\/p>\n<p>Fourth type \u2013 Despotic \u2013 is undertaken in order to spread terror among potential or real enemies. That is exactly what happened in Uganda.<\/p>\n<p>This essay has been written by <a href=\"https:\/\/worldessays.com\">WorldEssays.com<\/a> writers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Genocide is usually determined as the extermination of a particular racial, ethnic or religious group of people, which is made on purpose.
