Profile
The curriculum focuses on genocide and mass atrocities in the 20th century, encompassing the Holocaust, the Rwandan Genocide, the Armenian Genocide, Cambodia, and other contemporary cases.Our engagement with genocide is wide-ranging from the causes of genocide, to representations of genocide in the arts, to transitional justice following mass atrocities.Our student body is increasingly international. The programme is a collaboration between the University of Amsterdam and the Netherlands Institute for War, Holocaust and Genocide Studies. This integration of the programme with a well-established (more than 70 years old) research and archival centre makes the programme unique. Students will have access to a specialised library of war, Holocaust, and genocide studies, as well as the potential draw the more than 2,500 metres of archival materials managed by the NIOD, and the expertise of NIOD researchers. NIOD archivists are also currently involved in archiving projects relating to the Gacaca Archives in Rwanda, and the ICTY archives.The context of the Netherlands offers our students several advantages including the opportunity to visit genocide-related sites, as well as the international criminal tribunals in The Hague.
