The comparative study of atrocities and atrocity prevention faces several obstacles including a lack of consensus on the universe of cases and too few cases to statistically test alternative theories. The brutality-based (BB) conception is based on the idea that widespread, state-led violations of physical integrity rights constitute an assault on the personhood and human dignity of the members of society— a mass atrocity. Applying this idea to all countries annually systematically identifies a larger number of atrocities and facilitates categorization into three levels of intensity. The BB methodology for generating annual atrocity lists is replicable and transparent. The findings show that, between 1981 and 2019, the frequency of atrocities as defined and identified by other projects has been decreasing, but BB atrocities have been increasing. The sequence of different types of widespread physical integrity violations suggests new avenues for research on atrocity occurrence, escalation, de-escalation, and cessation.

一种基于残暴的方法来识别国家主导的暴行

暴行和暴行预防的比较研究面临几个障碍,包括对案例范围缺乏共识,以及案例太少而无法对替代理论进行统计检验。基于暴行 (BB) 的概念基于这样一种观点,即国家主导的广泛侵犯人身安全权构成对社会成员人格和人格尊严的攻击——大规模暴行。每年将这一想法应用于所有国家,都会系统地识别出更多的暴行,并有助于将其分为三个强度级别。用于生成年度暴行清单的 BB 方法是可复制和透明的。调查结果表明,在 1981 年至 2019 年期间,其他项目定义和确定的暴行频率一直在下降,但 BB 暴行一直在增加。
