Andrew R. Basso serves as an Adjunct Professor in the Department of Political Science at Wilfrid Laurier University and holds a BSIA Fellowship. His academic profile centers on atrocity crimes, political violence, and international human rights frameworks.

Dr. Basso's research investigates atrocity crimes through the lens of forced displacement and domicide (intentional home destruction), analyzing these as violations of human rights and laws of armed conflict. His work critically examines barriers to Indigenous-Settler reconciliation in Canada, bridging security studies with transitional justice practices. This scholarship integrates political science, international law, and decolonial theory to address systemic violence.
His recent publications reveal a thematic focus on displacement mechanisms and reconciliation processes. The forthcoming book Shallow River of Tears analyzes Canada's reconciliation failures, while Destroy Them Gradually establishes forced displacement as a core atrocity methodology. These works demonstrate his commitment to documenting violence patterns and advancing accountability frameworks within conflict studies.
