Violence and History of Violence with Philip Dwyer

rhizastance had the great opportunity to speak with Philip Dwyer and discuss various aspects of the history of violence. The main catalyst for our discussion was the assessment of the Darwinian understanding of global violence, which claims that violence is in decline. It is important to analyse the history of violence because ideas such as Steven Pinker's that violence has declined dramatically over time continue to influence academic and public discourse. We also discussed the intersection of violence with racism, genocide and colonialism.
