AUK Students Speak Out Against Political Violence

How are we indifferent to the suffering of the 'other' in Kuwait? Imagine your self in the position of an opressed "other" in Kuwait and consider what treatment this group would give to your actual social class or category if power differentials should change. Explain why, and indicate the steps to improve that relationship. 

Drawing from Raphael Lemkin's discussion on the "techniques of genocide involving a coordinated attack up elements of nationhood, discuss how vulnerable populations in Kuwait are "primed" to become targets of violence. Consider the following elements: political, social, cultural, economic, biological, physical, religious, moral. 

Apply the basic questions of genocide to Kuwait, as discussed in exercise one. What categories of people you believe are most vulnerable to  collective acts of violence  and why? What can be done to prevent such violence from happening and/or protects vulnerable populations? As future leaders in your respective fields outline a plan that promotes peaceful resolutions.
