Research Focus
• The purpose of this presentation is to conduct a comparative analysis of two case studies from the Bosnian genocide: a “willing executioner” and an “unwilling executioner” using Lonnie Athens’ violentization theory.

Violentization Theory
• Developed by Lonnie Athens (1994, 1997, 2010, 2015).
• This is a new approach to hate crimes and genocide.
• Explains the hate process leading to violent actions.
• Can be used to examine individuals, groups, communities & entire societies.

Violentization Theory
• Brutalization• Defiance• Violent Dominance Engagement• Virulency• Extreme Virulency (Violent Predation)
![Page 8: Understanding Genocide & Hate Crimes Presented at LIFE at UCF October 6, 2015 Mark Winton Department of Criminal Justice University of Central Florida](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062315/5697bfb61a28abf838c9e478/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Violentization Theory
• Brutalization- One is taught how to engage in violent behavior through observation and demonstration.
![Page 9: Understanding Genocide & Hate Crimes Presented at LIFE at UCF October 6, 2015 Mark Winton Department of Criminal Justice University of Central Florida](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062315/5697bfb61a28abf838c9e478/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Violentization Theory
• Defiance- A belief system is presented to the individual or group that is supportive of the use of violent behavior.
![Page 10: Understanding Genocide & Hate Crimes Presented at LIFE at UCF October 6, 2015 Mark Winton Department of Criminal Justice University of Central Florida](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062315/5697bfb61a28abf838c9e478/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Violentization Theory
• Violent Dominance Engagement-Engaging in violent acts to test out the results.
![Page 11: Understanding Genocide & Hate Crimes Presented at LIFE at UCF October 6, 2015 Mark Winton Department of Criminal Justice University of Central Florida](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062315/5697bfb61a28abf838c9e478/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Violentization Theory
• Virulency- The individual or group define themselves as violent and dangerous.
![Page 12: Understanding Genocide & Hate Crimes Presented at LIFE at UCF October 6, 2015 Mark Winton Department of Criminal Justice University of Central Florida](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062315/5697bfb61a28abf838c9e478/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Violentization Theory
• Extreme Virulency/Violent Predation-Recently added to the four stages to include extreme violent behavior.
![Page 13: Understanding Genocide & Hate Crimes Presented at LIFE at UCF October 6, 2015 Mark Winton Department of Criminal Justice University of Central Florida](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062315/5697bfb61a28abf838c9e478/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Phantom Communities
• Athens (1994) identified a sounding board (internal dialogue) that people use to make sense of themselves and situations.
• In cases of genocide, the phantom community is the voice that allows, encourages, and supports hatred and violence toward a constructed enemy.
![Page 14: Understanding Genocide & Hate Crimes Presented at LIFE at UCF October 6, 2015 Mark Winton Department of Criminal Justice University of Central Florida](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062315/5697bfb61a28abf838c9e478/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Self-Image Change
• Athens also pointed out that the person’s self-image changes as the phantom others and communities change.
• This explains how nonviolent individuals become dangerous and violent.
![Page 15: Understanding Genocide & Hate Crimes Presented at LIFE at UCF October 6, 2015 Mark Winton Department of Criminal Justice University of Central Florida](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062315/5697bfb61a28abf838c9e478/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Domination
• The key variable?
![Page 16: Understanding Genocide & Hate Crimes Presented at LIFE at UCF October 6, 2015 Mark Winton Department of Criminal Justice University of Central Florida](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062315/5697bfb61a28abf838c9e478/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

The Two Case Studies
• Dusko Tadic claimed he was innocent and did not engage in any violent behavior. He was convicted of crimes related to murder, torture, rape, and slavery. He was in a leadership role.
• Drazen Erdemovic admitted his guilt for the crimes and explained how he got into the situation and how he thought and felt about his violent actions. He was in a follower role.

Limitations
• Only two cases are compared in this study. • Inability to directly ask the offenders how they
constructed their situations.• May need to further specify indicators of each
stage.• Interpretations are based on their behaviors,
court report presentations, and statements by third parties.
![Page 51: Understanding Genocide & Hate Crimes Presented at LIFE at UCF October 6, 2015 Mark Winton Department of Criminal Justice University of Central Florida](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062315/5697bfb61a28abf838c9e478/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Further Research
• Critique other theories.• Focus on the deviolentization process. • Address early warning signs and procedures to
disrupt the violentization process. • Examine time frames for the violentization
process.
