a model of the processes of genocide:
1. difficult social conditions
2. scapegoating of less powerful groups
3. negative evaluation and dehumanisation of target groups
4. moral values and rules become inapplicable and the killing beings
5. the passivity of bystanders enhances the killing
Evaluation - the importance of bystanders
- the model shows that bystanders are very important
- bystanders getting involved may cut down the duration of the event may it may not stop the severity of it
