Harvesting Hatreds: A New Study on the Impact of Hatreds

A new study authored by the general coordinator of Masarat Foundation has been published by the Independent Human Rights Commission in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq. The study, released in both Kurdish and Arabic, is titled “Harvesting Hatreds: Case Studies of Rwanda, Myanmar, and Iraq,” and analyzes the problematic relationship between the dissemination of hate speech in the media and social media as a precursor to genocide.
The study addresses the following problematic question: Can hate speech develop into more violent forms leading to genocide?
It analyzed the critical role played by the media in inciting violence and prolonging it in well-known cases in the international system, and sparked important discussions on preventing genocide, regulating hate speech, and the appropriate forms of intervention by the state or even the international community.
In its third chapter, the study focused on analyzing hate speech in Iraq. By utilizing and analyzing data on hate speech monitored by the Hate Speech Monitoring Center in Masarat Foundation, the study aimed to provide useful analytical data for contemplating preventive aspects of preventing genocide in the future.
The study offered a set of ideas and recommendations on how to confront expressions of hatred and suggests developing a comprehensive approach to addressing hate speech in light of the experience of the Hate Speech Monitoring and Response Center at Masarat Foundation.
