Genocide studies is a relatively new field of comparative inquiry,
but recent years have seen an increasing range of themes and
subject-matter being addressed reflecting a variety of features of
the field and transformations within it. This edited books seeks to
capture the range of new approaches, theories and case studies in
the field. It unfolds in three sections: * The first section
focuses on broad theories of comparative genocide, including a
number of different perspectives. * The second section critically
reconsiders core themes of genocide studies, including humanitarian
intervention and the role of bystanders; and unfolds a range of
challenging new directions, including the forcible transfer of
children as a genocidal strategy, cultural genocide, the art and
architecture of genocide, gender and genocide, structural violence,
and the novel application of remote-sensing technologies to the
detection and study of genocide. * The third and final section is
case-study focused, seeking to place both canonical and
little-known cases of genocide in broader comparative perspective.
Cases analyzed include genocide in North America, the Nazi
Holocaust, the Rwandan genocide of 1994, and the Indonesian
genocide of 1965-66. The combination of cutting-edge scholarship
and innovative approaches to familiar subjects makes this essential
reading for all students and scholars in the field of genocide
studies.
