TY - JOUR PY - 2019// TI - Moving beyond the state: an imperative for genocide prediction JO - Genocide studies and prevention A1 - Nyseth Brehm, Hollie SP - 64 EP - 78 VL - 13 IS - 3 N2 - Studies of the onset of genocide and accompanying early warning and forecasting efforts have focused almost exclusively on states. This article suggests that genocide prediction must move beyond a purely state-centric approach. Specifically, I suggest three major avenues that will refine and complement existing research and related prediction efforts. These include 1) theorizing and analyzing non-state actors who commit genocide, 2) engaging in conflict-centered approaches, and 3) addressing the onset and triggers of genocide within subnational spaces. I conclude with a discussion of how these three avenues can be pursued simultaneously to inform more robust genocide prevention endeavors.
