Webinar: Violence Against Civilians in Modern War
From the First World War to the Syrian war, the distinction between the front and the so-called “home front” is becoming indistinguishable. Civilian targets in conflict zones have been the centre of attention for international organisations, media platforms and governments. But the targeting of civilian populations is not exceptional and is now a systemic feature of warfare. This webinar discusses the targeting of women, children, the elderly, and the LGBTQI+ community as an element of total warfare in which societies seek a deeper level of victorious validation than winning a battle.
