Ethnic cleansing is a process in which a more powerful ethnic group forcibly removes a less powerful one in order to create an ethnically homogeneous region. –Motivation is not to simply defeat an enemy or to subjugate them, instead it is to remove each member of the less powerful ethnicity, including men, women, children, and the elderly. Ex: Forced migration associated with WWII that included the deportation of millions of Jews, gypsies, and other ethnic groups to concentration camps where most were exterminated

Forced Migration after WWII (1945) The largest number were Poles forced to move from territory occupied by the Soviet Union (now Russia), Germans forced to migrate from territory taken over by Poland and the Soviet Union, and Russians forced to return to the Soviet Union from Western Europe.

Ethnic Cleansing in the Balkans –In recent years, ethnic cleansing has occurred in portions of former Yugoslavia. Bosnia –Serbs and Croats fought to not be part of a multiethnic state with a Muslim plurality. »Motivated to perform ethnic cleansing on Bosnian Muslims to reduce their numbers and to offer an ethnically homogenous group of people to be better candidates for union with Serbia and Croatia. –Ethnic cleansing of Bosnian Muslims created one continuous area of Bosnia Serb domination rather than several discontinuous ones.

9 Why Do Ethnicities Engage in Ethnic Cleansing and Genocide? Ethnic Cleansing in the Balkans –Balkanized was a term widely used to describe a small geographic area that could not successfully be organized into one or more stable states, because it was inhabited by multiple, longstanding ethnicities with animosity towards each other. –Balkanization is the process by which a state breaks down through conflicts among its ethnicities. –If peace comes to the Balkans, it will be because ethnic cleansing “worked” tragically.

Ethnic Cleansing and Genocide in Sub- Saharan Africa –Genocide is the mass killing of a group of people in an attempt to eliminate the entire group from existence. Ex.

13 © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Why Do Ethnicities Engage in Ethnic Cleansing and Genocide? Ethnic Cleansing and Genocide in Central Africa –Rwanda Genocide involving Hutus murdering hundreds of thousands of Tutsis began in 1994. –Congo Conflict between Hutus and Tutsis spilled into neighboring countries. –Laurent Kabila, president succeeding Mobutu, permitted Tutsis to kill some of the Hutu residents.

14 © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Why Do Ethnicities Engage in Ethnic Cleansing and Genocide? Ethnic Cleansing and Genocide in Central Africa –Ethnic conflict is widespread in Africa largely because the present-day boundaries of countries do not match the boundaries of ethnic groups. During nineteenth and twentieth centuries, European countries carved up the continent in to a collection of colonies, with little regard for the distribution of ethnicities. When colonies became states, some tribes were divided among more than one modern state, and others were grouped with dissimilar tribes. –A recipe for conflict
