Genocide most often classified as the most extreme form of violence was and still is the subject of study by many scientists in humanities. In general, two basic objectives prevail in the issue of genocide research.
The first goal is the definition and conceptualization of the concept of genocide. The second goal is the prevention of genocide.
Especially in the area of genocide prevention, detailed knowledge of the dynamics of the entire process is absolutely necessary. From the second half of the last century, certain conceptions explaining the genocidal process began to emerge.
In 2012, these efforts reached an imaginary peak, Dr. Stanton presented his conception called The ten stages of genocide.
Despite all the success of Stanton's model, as with other similar conceptions, criticism pointed to its excessive generality, unclear structure, and limited consideration of historical, spatial and other factors. The goal of this paper is to present the universal conception for the research of genocide.
The model that transforms the otherwise complex genocidal process into a more clearly structured form, but at the same time preserves the uniqueness of each case of genocide.
