Can genocides be stoped by economics?
A friend and I were discussing the genocides in Africa and we feel that perhaps if governments made it unprofitable for the people in Africa and or the copanies supplying the arms and equpment that make the genocides possible. That the genocides could be stoped.
The question, on a philosophical level, is that even using economics in a way to help others could those genocides be stoped, for they are based on hatrid rather than economics, if countries or powerful orgiznations (such as the U.N) made it unprofitable for either the companies supplying the equepment or the countries can these genocides be stoped?
