This workshop is intended to overcome current limitations with regard to the documentation, analysis, advocacy and communication concerning mass violence. Traditional sources of information concerning mass violence have been found inadequate by scholars. For example, media reports depend on reporter acess. Instances of political violence go underreported in certain situations. Non-traditional sources such as those from HRDAG have their own limitations. While thorough, they also suffer from the problems of convenience samples. Also, many researchers seem unaware of these traditional sources. At the same time, human rights groups and policy makers seem unaware of theoretical work in this area from which they might benefit. The purpose of this workshop is to bridge this gap.With regards to intellectual merit, this workshop will highlight new and exciting sources of data. It will also consider the limits to these new sources of information.With regards to broader impacts, policy makers and non-governmental organizations will be made aware of current theoretical work in these areas. This would, hopefully, result in them using this work in develop their policies.

该讲习班旨在克服目前在有关大规模暴力的文件、分析、宣传和交流方面的局限性。 学者们发现，关于大规模暴力的传统信息来源是不够的。 例如，媒体报道依赖于记者的访问。 在某些情况下，对政治暴力的报道不足。 非传统来源，如来自HRDAG的来源，有其自身的局限性。 虽然彻底，他们也遭受的问题，方便的样品。 此外，许多研究人员似乎不知道这些传统的来源。 与此同时，人权团体和决策者似乎没有意识到他们可能从中受益的这一领域的理论工作。 本次研讨会的目的是弥合这一差距。关于知识价值，本次研讨会将突出新的和令人兴奋的数据来源。 它还将考虑这些新的信息来源的局限性，关于更广泛的影响，将使决策者和非政府组织了解这些领域目前的理论工作。希望这将导致他们在制定政策时使用这项工作。
