The growth of scholarship on the pressing problem of genocide shows
no sign of abating. This volume takes stock of Genocide Studies in
all its multi-disciplinary diversity by adopting a thematic rather
than case-study approach. Each chapter is by an expert in the field
and comprises an up-to-date survey of emerging and established
areas of enquiry while highlighting problems and making suggestions
about avenues for future research. Each essay also has a select
bibliography to facilitate further reading. Key themes include
imperial violence and military contexts for genocide, predicting,
preventing, and prosecuting genocide, gender, ideology, the state,
memory, transitional justice, and ecocide. The volume also
scrutinises the concept of genocide - its elasticity, limits, and
problems. It does not provide a definition of genocide but rather
encourages the reader to think critically about genocide as a
conceptual and legal category concerned with identity-based
violence against civilians.
