Sadism (or Marquis de Sade) in Foreign Lands: The Story of the Burn Pit Atrocity

Sadism in Foreign Lands: The Burn Pit Atrocity Abstract This is a story of one of the forgotten tragedies of the modern era—that of the burn pits. Burn pits were large holes dug into the ground in Iraq and Afghanistan during the War on Terror that government contractors used to burn hazardous waste. These holes were dug in direct proximity to human habitation. As a result, air was polluted and water tables contaminated, ultimately leading to countless illnesses and deaths for those who were exposed to these toxins. This paper upholds the American courts’ opinion that military contractors were not solely to blame for the tragedies that have ensued. The precepts of Marquis de Sade are blended into an autoethnography to explore the rationale behind the deliberate actions of senior military officials that endangered lives as a result of burn pit exposure. Unearthed was the discovery that a warzone is a heterotopia, or a space apart from values of mainstream society. Academicians who explore organizational dysfunctions will find this paper of value. It is one of only a few papers that explore issues involving the burn pits. Most importantly, it represents activism in scholarly research to explore the role of separate spaces that breed evil.
