    From Joachim Savelsberg. Forthcoming. Knowing about Genocide. Armenian Suffering and Epistemic Struggles. University of California Press. Chapter 9: Denialism in an Age of Human Rights Hegemony Denialism can be effective, especially when powerful and influential actors repress dark chapters of history that the populace already seeks to avoid. Yet, denial of mass atrocity and genocide in the context of human rights hegemony is likely to fail. In fact, denialists have to expect counterproductive consequences. Their “successes” turn out to be Pyrrhic victories. To argue this point, I briefly return to central insights from the two preceding chapters. There I examined epistemic conflicts in the context of legal and political decision-making processes. Both chapters taught us important lessons about the social forces at work, the entrepreneurs of knowledge and carrier groups, the effect that rules of the game have on fights carried out in specific social fields, the limits of those rules when players improvise, and the weight of national contexts in which fields are nested. Yet, focusing on concrete processes of decision-making alone leaves out something important. It does not speak to situations in which problems never become issues in the first place, in which they do not enter public consciousness and are absent from the realm of deliberation and decision-making. Scholarly debates of the 1960s and 1970s about community power structures can teach us important lessons about such blank spots. They initially involved two camps, with a conflict theoretical model, inspired by C. Wright Mills, on one side of the divide. Its followers used a reputational approach to measure power, asking experts or members of local elites about the amount of power held by different actors in the community.

  • Between Organised Crime and Terrorism: Illicit Firearms Actors And
    237 Between organised crime and terrorism: ITALY Illicit firearms actors and market dynamics in Italy Francesco Strazzari and Francesca Zampagni The illicit trade in firearms has been a key area of international concern since the late 1990s,1 when large amounts of illicit firearms entered the European Union (EU) illicit firearms market after the end of the Cold War from stockpiles in neighbour- ing regions, especially the states of the former Yugoslavia. Moreover, since 2001 the threat of jihadist terrorism has been high on the EU agenda and with it the potential problem of arms trafficking to supply terrorist groups based in the EU.In a November 2012 speech Cecilia Malmström, the then-EU commissioner for home affairs, stated that the number of illicit firearms circulating in the EU exceeds the number of reg- istered hunters and sports shooters, which total approximately 10 million.2 More recently, the flaring up of armed conflicts close to the EU’s borders, for example in Ukraine, the Middle East and North Africa, has raised concerns about the emer- gence of new sources of illicit firearms to supply the European market. Italy was chosen as the subject of an in-depth study on illicit gun markets for several reasons. Firstly, the country plays a prominent role in the production of firearms in the EU and is considered a top global exporter of small arms and light weapons. According to TradeMap data, the volume of Italian firearms exports is increasing, with a value of US$806 million in 2016.3 Secondly, Italy hosts a wide spectrum of organised criminal groups that have been a serious cause of concern to the authori- ties for some time.
